Abstract
A computer-based system for combining data related to stand population, consistency and quality in agricultural crops and dynamically analyzing the data whereby stand determinations based on that analysis during a crop growing season can be made. The system is programmed to alert a user (farmer) or other designated parties when the stand fails to meet user-defined parameters.

35. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a stand analyzer and alert generator (SAAG) executing on a computer device, data for a region of interest that includes growing crops, wherein the received data for the region of interest comprises at least one of field data, crop data, geographic data, and geologic data; determining, by the SAAG and based on the received data for the region of interest, that a stand status of the growing crops within the region of interest reflects nonconformance with one or more parameters, wherein the stand status comprises at least one of a population status, a quality status, and a consistency status of the growing crops within the region of interest; and outputting, by the SAAG and in response to determining that the stand status reflects nonconformance with the one or more parameters, at least one alert. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57)

58. A system comprising:
-
a computer device comprising at least one processor; and a stand analyzer and alert generator (SAAG) executable by the at least one processor of the computer device and configured to; receive data for a region of interest that includes growing crops, wherein the received data for the region of interest comprises at least one of field data, crop data, geographic data, and geologic data; determine, based on the received data for the region of interest, that a stand status of growing crops within the region of interest reflects nonconformance with one or more parameters, wherein the stand status comprises at least one of a population status, a quality status, and a consistency status of the growing crops within the region of interest; and output, in response to determining that the stand status reflects nonconformance with the one or more parameters, at least one alert. - View Dependent Claims (59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79)
