System and method for creating agricultural decision and application maps for automated agricultural machines
First Claim
1. A system for allowing a user to create application maps for variable rate application of material to an agricultural field based on selected field data, the system comprising:
- a data storage system for storing field data of the field, the field data including economic data;
a user interface allowing a user to select a desired output for an area of the field; and
a processor operably coupled to the data storage system and the user interface, wherein the processor is configured to create an application map of the area of the field based on field data and the desired output.

Abstract
A system for creating application maps for controlling a dispensing apparatus based upon field data, the system including a system for maintaining field data. The field data may be georeferenced relative to geographic coordinates of the location of the field data. Application rate equations for correlating field data relative to desired output may be selectively defined based upon selected field data and desired output to produce application maps for a particular field. A processor is designed to selectively access field data for a particular field to execute application rate equations for the field data to produce an application map which may be used for variable rate application of material by dispensing apparatus based upon the selected field data and the desired output.

11. A system for creating a variable rate crop product application map for use in an automated agricultural machine, the system comprising:
-
a data storage system for storing field data and recommendation equations, wherein recommendation equations define a correlation between field data and crop yield, and wherein the field data including economic data;
a user interface for allowing a user to define a field and set a desired crop yield goal for the field; and
a processor operably coupled to the data storage system and the user interface which uses field data and recommendation equations to calculate dispensing rates of crop product and to create a variable rate application map for the user defined field. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
