Management Zones & VRA Maps Tools
Zones creator & managed automation; Automatically and manually created zones based on 30-year history imagery, soil (agrochemical analysis, scanners data, EC, moisture), and topography data. Set rate for ag input product, calculate product cost, use industry standard equations or create your own. Customize; Merge, split, draw, and change zones. ?ompatibility & Export; Creation of VRA maps that are compatible with most ag machinery. Shapefiles, Isoxml(ISOBUS), Send to MyJohnDeere.
Single-layer analytics
A Zones Map built based on the defined data layer like Satellite Images, Topography, Soil Sampling, High-Density Sensor, Yield or As Applied Datasets. Engine does the following:
- automatically removes noise,
- automatically merges small polygons into the closest bigger zone,
- keeps only the necessary minimum amount of points in every zone polygon,
- makes VRA maps compatible with any agricultural equipment and machinery.
Delineation of management zones based on a combination of any data layers with the possibility to set a weight for each layer. Operate with the complete set of parameters doing integrated analytics:
- Yield data
- Remote sensing data
- Topography
- Soil data
Identify areas with higher and lower yield potential, problematic areas and get insight to field productivity and variability. Examples of use:
- identify the field crop development pattern;
- blueprint for prescription (Rx) files for seeding, fertilization, zones based soil sampling.
Detect the most changeable and stable spots at the field during any time period: the last 1-2 weeks or 1-2 months or even a couple of years. Examples of use:
- identify areas for scouting
- detect changes and see the positive or negative trend of crop development
Search for dependencies between different zones maps such. This is a step forward in defining the most influenced areas and understanding the reasons for field heterogeneity. Examples of use:
- understand the reasons of field heterogeneity;
- detection of the most important factors for your yield (e.g. high slope & low productivity);
- identify the most interesting & valuable areas for extended analytics (scouting, soil, plant sampling).
Adjust geometries of the zones using the integrated toolbox without complicated GIS software. Merge and split zones feature allows you:
- Split polygons
- Merge polygons
- Assign a polygon or a complete zone to another class
Distribute the appropriate ag inputs that work for you in the appropriate field zones and operation such as fertilizing, crop protection, seeding, irrigation, etc. Example of use:
- create compatible with ag machinery VRA map for precision ag operations,
- set price per product unit and know your costs per product and total cost.
Statistics for Zones
Calculate statistics on zone level to determine how accurate the measures are. It is based on data layers utilized in zones creation: yield, ground sensors, satellite, topographic, and multi-layer. The covered metrics are:
- minimum,
- maximum,
- average,
- median,
- sum,
- standard deviation.
Data compatibility
Create Variable Rate Application maps that are compatible with most ag machinery. Unlimit export of management zones and VRA maps. Maps can be exported as:
- shapefile,
- isoxml,
- geojson,
- or send it to connected applications.
Draw zones manually
Nobody knows your fields better than you. Use GeoPard analytics as a base to make your own agronomic decisions.
- Use any base layer (high-res maps or analytics layers)
- Fully customize the map with your own drawing
- Conduct on-farm experiments with drawn strip trials
Equations based prescriptions
Description
- Build equations from scratch with your own formula
- Harness the power of industry standard equations
- Batch mode
