Farmers Edge developed the Precision Edge system to provide their staff of crop consultants with a solution for creating variable rate fertilizer and agronomic recommendations. Crop fields are mapped for management zones, yield and product application using remote sensing, vegetation analysis and classification.

RapidEye satellite data is provided on-demand for crop analysis. Imagery is available for approximately 750 million hectares in the USA, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Russia, and Australia.
