This contribution is focused on soil compaction measurements with use of horizontal penetrometer in field conditions based on two parameters comparision method. It deals with system design, such as the frame, and with design of measurement and writer unit. The whole device was in the end tested and the results had been analyzed. Because of increasing efforts to accelerate the processing of large number of measurements, the use of automated penetration systems together with location of measurements with GPS are more and more practiced. This allows us to quickly map the actual conditions of soil environment and their incorporation into the soil maps.
