Abstract

ArcGIS: A Tool for Accuracy in Agriculture Research
Track: Infrastructure
Authors: Brody McCauley

ESRI ArcGIS is used by the Land O'Lakes Winfield United Answer Plot Teams for research and demo plots. We standardize application methods across teams to produce national data sets. Also apply multiple treatments in the field using Trimble hardware and shape files. These treatments range from in-furrow products to post emergence products. We produce nationwide visual maps displaying plot attributes or highly detailed zoomed in maps used for field operations and yield analysis.
