GPS Industries announced that Hawk's Landing Golf Course, located at the Orlando World Center Marriott, will install GPS Industries' Inforemer Wi-Fi GPS golf business solution.
Hawk's Landing, a renowned par-72 championship course, winds around the 200 acres of the Orlando World Center Marriott, Florida's largest resort and convention center and the largest Marriott facility in the world with 2000 guest rooms and 214,000 square feet of meeting space. Hawk's Landing will install Inforemer's full management system and Wi-Fi network infrastructure and equip its fleet of 80 golf carts with Inforemer's 10.4 inch color cart-mount GPS units.
Resort guests at Hawk's Landing will enjoy Inforemer's realistic color course graphics, accurate distance measurements to hazards and the greens, convenient pro-tips, on-course food and beverage ordering, emergency messaging capabilities and real-time tournaments. "With its advanced Wi-Fi and GPS functionality, dynamic two-way communication, ease of use and ability to make every round a tournament round, Inforemer will significantly enhance the golf experience at Hawk's Landing and improve our level of guest service," comments Patrick Dill, Director of Golf at Hawk's Landing. "We were particularly impressed with the performance of Inforemer's color screens in direct sunlight."
Designed specifically for outdoor use in any weather, Inforemer's GPS screens can be ergonomically mounted at eye level, instead of on the cart roof. "As a Florida resort, golfers at Hawk's Landing require GPS screens that can be viewed clearly even on bright, sunny days," comments Blake Ponuick, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at GPSI. "GPS Industries has the only ruggedized, outdoor color GPS screens on the market specifically designed for enhanced viewing in direct sunlight."
The installation at Hawk's Landing follows GPSI's recent announcement of the purchase of the GPS golf patents for North America. GPSI now owns the GPS golf patents for all major markets in the worldwide golf marketplace. For more information on Hawk's Landing, visit www.golfhawkslanding.com.
