How Soil Mapping Works
- SoilOptix® uses a non-contact, pre-calibrated sensor that measures natural geological properties. Standard field practice: – Sensor mounted 2 ft (60 cm) above ground – 12 mph (20 kph) maximum field speeds – 40 ft (12 m) swath widths
- Strategically placed soil samples are taken once every 8 acres (3.2 ha) & sent to your local lab for analysis. Results are integrated into our final product.
- SoilOptix® then intakes, analyzes, & processes the information using proprietary software & algorithms. Data processing is completed within a target of 48 business hours.
- High-definition nutrient & texture maps are returned to you in generic SHP or CSV files. Files are VRA-ready & can be easily integrated into most data platforms; including Climate FieldView & John Deere Operations Centre.
