GPS Farming Services for Agriculture
GPS Farming Services include Farm and Field GIS Data Collection - making Agriculture and Farming More Precise
Tools available as GPS farming services include:
-
GPS soil sampling of fields.
Detailed
soil sampling of fields and farm to provide detailed soil
nutrient status for pH, P, K, Mg or other nutrients as required. See
case study of GPS soil sampling.
-
GPS nutrient
mapping. Management tool to optimise knowledge on soil nutrient
status, fertiliser needed to optimise crop yields and
fertiliser usage.
- GPS yield recording data interpretation. Data collected by GPS
yield monitors can be interpreted and displayed to maximise
understanding of crop yields across farms and fields. See
case study of GPS yield mapping.
- GPS mapping service. To provide detailed information about your fields and farm, to create new maps, verify existing maps or add to existing maps. See case study of GPS farm mapping.
- Monitor crop stages by field for more timely crop applications. Agronomy service includes detailed crop stage prediction to enable timeliness of crop management and applications.
- Monitor weather to ensure accurate applications. Weather factors are vital in precision farming because they can effect when inputs can be applied and the effectiveness of applied inputs.
- GPS altitude mapping. Altitude mapping can aid drainage and crop plans.
- GPS mapping of soil conductivity. Identify differences within field soils.
Example GPS Farming Services.
GPS mapping to aid plans of ditches to minimise flooded areas within fields.
○ GPS mapping is used to locate data collection points or areas.
Such as soil samples, plant samples, boundary areas etc..
○ GPS mapping is used to process data, whether data has been collected by ourselves or other systems.
Such as GPS yield mapped data, GPS soil sample data, GPS satellite image data, GPS mapping EMI scanned data, GPS mapping altitude etc..
○ ArcView software, the most widely used GPS type mapping software in the world.
This software enables very powerful processing of all
GPS data.
○ GPS maps can be created using data from agronomist.
Location of data recordings are GIS
data referenced either accurately or in general area.
○ Data can be return in a format to suit your own software or in easily viewed format or paper.
