How it works on your site

Sportstraq is a GPS auto-steer retrofit kit that turns an existing utility vehicle or line striper into a line marker: an RTK-GNSS receiver and steering module hold the host on a designed line and switch the paint on and off, while the operator rides aboard and drives to the start of each line. Every named user marks sports fields or municipal pitches; the vendor also markets the kit for roads and parking lots, and no road, parking-lot or construction user appears in the record. Dubuque Soccer Club marked its 11 fields, from 7v7 to 11v11, in four hours, a job that took two full days by hand. Traqnology, based in Holstebro, Denmark, has shipped the kit since 2018 and sells in North America through an arm in Ladd, Illinois; the five documented deployments are in Denmark and the US.
