The penetrologger can be applied in both the agricultural and the civil engineering sectors:

• General soil science research;
• Foundation technology;
• Checking whether or not the soil is suitable for agricultural;
  
• Research into (expected) growing conditions for plants;
  
• The detection of compacted (possibly impermeable) sub-soil layers;
  
• Research into poor growing conditions of for instance trees in the city or in parks;
  
• Checking artificially-made compactions;
  
• Checking the suitability of soils for carrying vehicles or pedestrians.
