Farm Site adds layers
and GPS compatibility to Farm Trac. Real-world coordinates work to
provide state-of-the-art positioning. Farm Site also supports a
limitless number of layers, from soil types or soil tests, to last
year's fields or next year's planting intentions. Farm Site works
with all major yield monitors, and Farm Works is committed to
supporting the widest possible range of equipment. |

- Take Farm Trac maps one step further.
Draw your map with real world coordinates
provided by a GPS receiver or other source.
- Drawing a field can be as easy as clicking
on a button or driving around the field.
- Display street maps and other data that is
available on the Internet or from the U.S.
Geological Survey or a CD from Farm Works.
- The Calibrate program allows you to easily
download images directly from the internet.
Just type in a known coordinate on the map
(or capture a coordinate from previously
created maps such as government road &
waterway maps) and the map will
automatically be downloaded from the
internet and will be calibrated with GPS.
These maps will automatically line up with
any other GPS maps that you have (including
road & waterway maps).
- Have your field boundaries drawn
automatically with Farm Site's auto draw
feature and your yield data.
- Create any number of layers to analyze
anything in, on , or under fields.
- Print full-color maps to any Windows™
compatible printer. You may either
print to a set scale or print the map as
seen on the screen.
- Automatically grid any field to any grid
size for soil sampling. This procedure will
automatically create grid lines as well as
the soil sampling points and can be used to
automatically fill in the sample ID for
each. Points can be created using several
different grid patterns and all points can
be moved or deleted. These points can be
exported for use with Micro-Trak's® Soil-Trak™
or with Farm Site Mate.
- Includes easy-to-use drawing tools.
- Use patterns, as well as colors, for your
maps. Overlay layers to see how they relate
to each other.
- Import yield data, including moisture,
elevation, and any other data collected by
all major yield monitors.
- Use Quick Yields to quickly import and see
base, gridded, or contoured views of yield
data.
- Create averaged, smoothed, or contoured
views of any point data, including yield
maps and soil tests. You have full control
over settings that are used to grid or
contour the data. Change the size of the
grid on which averages are based, change the
number of points used in smoothing
calculations, or use the default values
provided.
- Display averages based on areas from other
layers. Find the average yields for each
soil type or for a weed area or show the
average pH within a certain soil type.
- Quickly and easily create and display
legends. Use the statistical option to
automatically create a legend based on the
ranges of data that you are working with, or
use the Equal Units feature to make your own
legend. You have the flexibility to make
your own legend the way you want. And,
unlike many automatic legends, ours isn't
fooled by a few erroneous yield points in
your data.
- Import and export data in several formats
including Arc View Shape files and ASCII
delimited files.
- Use scanned images - as many or as few as
you need. These images can be geo-referenced
and scaled using your road and waterway
maps. You can then trace field and soil type
boundaries to produce accurate maps.
- Zoom in on any feature on a map, or see a
bird's-eye view of the entire area. Quickly
zoom to a certain farm or field with user
defined zooms.
- Use the "Show Me" function to
display only selected parts of any data. For
example, show only areas with certain soil
types, or only yields that fall within a
selected range.
- Use the coordinate system that fits the
job - Degrees, Degrees-Minutes,
Degrees-Minutes-Seconds, State Plane, or UTM.
