Farm Site

Farm Site adds layers and GPS compatibility to Farm Trac whilst retaining all of Trac's great features. 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.

1. Take Farm Trac one step further.  Draw your map with real world coordinates provided by a GPS receiver or other source

1. Drawing a field can be as easy as clicking on a button or driving around the field

1. Display geo-referenced maps available on the internet or digitised farm maps from your governmental office

1. Have your field boundaries drawn automatically with Farm Site's auto draw feature and your yield, sample, as-applied or any other point-based data

1. Create any number of layers to analyse - in, on, or under fields

1. Print full-colour maps to any Windows™ compatible printer.  You may either print to a set scale or print the map as seen on the screen (X2 and 2008 now with customisable layouts)

1. Automatically grid fields 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

1. Includes easy-to-use drawing tools

1. Use patterns for job types, as well as colours for commodities, for your maps. Overlay layers to see how they relate to each other

1. Import yield data, including moisture, elevation, and any other data collected by all major yield monitors

1. Use Quick Yields to quickly import and see base, gridded, or contoured views of yield data

1. 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

1. 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

1. 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. Also, create default legends for commodities, yield values, pH and any recorded attribut

1. Import and export data in several formats including Arc View Shape files, KML, FODM XML and .csv files

1. 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 by selecting its name

1. 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

1. Use the coordinate system that fits the job - Degrees, Degrees-Minutes, Degrees-Minutes-Seconds, Latitude-Longitude UTM variations or OSGB
