IRRIGATION SYSTEM WITH A USER INTERFACE INCLUDING STATUS ICONS
First Claim
1. An irrigation management system, the system comprising:
- a monitoring system for monitoring a position of an irrigation system;
a user interface for displaying a map view of a geographic area including an irrigated area corresponding to the irrigation system, the map view including a graphical element corresponding to the irrigation system, the graphical element including an outline of the irrigated area and providing a visual indication of a start position of the irrigation system, a current position of the irrigation system, and progress of the irrigation system, the visual indication of the progress of the irrigation system including a colored area of the status icon corresponding to a portion of the irrigated area covered by the irrigation system; and
a controller for receiving monitoring information from the monitoring system and updating the graphical element to reflect changes in the position of the irrigation system, the direction of travel of the irrigation system, and the progress of the irrigation system.

Abstract
An irrigation management system includes a monitoring system, a controller and a user interface. The monitoring system monitors an operational status of the irrigation system, including a current position, a travel status, a direction of travel, and a fault status. The user interface displays a map view of a geographic area including an irrigated area corresponding to the irrigation system. A graphical element in the map view provides a visual indication of the operational status of the irrigation system. The controller receives monitoring information from the monitoring system and continuously updates the user interface to reflect changes in the operational status of the irrigation system, such that the graphical element reflects a current status of the irrigation system.

19. A system comprising:
-
one or more computers; and a computer-readable medium coupled to the one or more computers having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more computers, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising; continuously monitoring the activity of each of a plurality of irrigation systems, including a current position of each system, a travel status of each system including whether the system is moving or stopped, a direction of travel of each system, and a fault status of each system including whether the system experienced an unanticipated event; displaying a graphical user interface including a map view of the plurality of irrigation systems, the map view including a graphical element associated with each irrigation system, each graphical element providing a visual indication of the position of each irrigation system, a direction of travel of each irrigation system, progress of each irrigation system, and the fault status of each irrigation system; and continuously updating the graphical user interface to reflect changes in the position of each irrigation system, the direction of travel of each irrigation system, the progress of each irrigation system, and the fault status of each irrigation system.
