AgriData Incorporated

David Hagert of Grand Forks, North Dakota founded AgriData, Inc. in 1991 with a goal of providing the ag industry an avenue to utilize the budding technology of electronic mapping for their benefit. AgriData, Inc. began by providing field record keeping software along with precision ag services which included analyzing yield maps and satellite imagery and providing VRT services. David also had ideas on how to improve communication with crop insurance, custom application, and the farmland appraisal process based on his firsthand experience of being farmer. In the late 90’s, AgriData, Inc. developed a mapping system for crop insurance companies to document and recall policy information in a geospatial mapping interface. This product later became Surety Customized Online Mapping or also known as simply, Surety. Building off what they had already established with the insurance companies, AgriData, Inc. in 2004 began releasing features for other ag Industries as well.
