Understanding Field Layers

Field Layers in Granular Insights is a comprehensive toolset for data that allows a single-platform experience for analysis, enhancing productivity and simplifying the decision-making process.

Visualize and Analyze by Soil Types

Field Layers enables better soil layers management allowing you to view detailed soil information. For instance, you can view SSURGO (Soil Survey Geographic Database) and ERU (Environmental Response Unit) soil layers and examine their associated attributes including the CSR (corn suitability rating, where available) and NCCPI (National Commodity Crop Productivity Index). These detailed insights help advisors and growers make better decisions about where and how to invest resources for optimal yield.

Customize Field Layers

Use Field Layers in Granular Insights, to create new layers, edit existing ones and assign specific attributes to each layer. This customization allows you to build your field layers to reflect unique field conditions or specific trials such as fertility or setting zones based on soil attributes. The flexibility makes it easy to adapt Field Layers for various uses across different fields, regions or crop types. By directly managing layers related to trials or decision zones, you can gain better insights and make necessary adjustments based on field performance.

Multi-Layer View

Overlay multiple layers (e.g. variety, soil and yield data) in a single map, making it easier to identify patterns/correlations that influence yield across different areas of a field. Quickly visualize field performance across multiple field layers to make better crop management decisions.

VRS Decision Zones

Edit your Decision Zones using the tools available in Field Layers to fine-tune your zones for use in Variable Rate Seeding. Decision Zones can also be overlaid with other field layers when evaluating field performance.
