How It Works

Learn how DeepGarden analyzes your property to provide accurate growing recommendations

Location Analysis

We start by geocoding your address and determining your property's orientation and characteristics using Google Maps data.

Image Collection

Our system gathers satellite imagery and Street View photos from multiple angles to get a comprehensive view of your property.

Climate Zone Detection

We determine your location's hardiness zone using authoritative climate data from multiple sources.

Hardiness Zone Systems

  • USDA Plant Hardiness Zones: Zones based on average annual minimum winter temperatures, widely used for plant selection in the United States.
  • Köppen-Geiger Climate Classification: Global climate classification system based on temperature and precipitation patterns.
AI Analysis

Advanced AI analyzes the collected imagery and climate data to understand your yard's unique conditions, opportunities, and challenges.

Personalized Recommendations

Based on all gathered data, we provide tailored advice for plants, landscaping, and garden planning specific to your location.
