AGCO Global Technologies announces GTA400 Precision Farming PC software, fourth in a suite of software for PC products to simplify gathering, transferring and analyzing data from tractor and combine mounted GTA consoles, Fieldstar terminals and other sources. The software takes a brand neutral approach to creating “planned jobs,” such as variable rate application of seed, fertilizer and crop protection products. With the addition of GTA400, farmers have full control of their data. GTA100 Communicator facilitates the transfer and organization of data logged on GTA Consoles and Fieldstar terminals, displaying it by farm, field or job, and exporting in formats compatible with a wide array of farm management software. GTA200 lets users plan, trace and manage field operations, including equipment and fuel, crop inputs and labour using GTA100 and other data sources. GTA300 works with geo-referenced data collected on GPS equipped in-cab terminals, allowing it to be turned into easily understood reports or maps. GTA400 capabilities include layer management, management zone creation, data import and classification, nearest point interpolation, and creation of planned and completed job maps. Layer management allows customers to visually compare multiple maps by overlaying one image on another, such as a yield map over soil test values or tile lines over a yield map. GTA 400 users can also create customized maps from imported data sets. Specific colour and data range themes can be created and automatically reused on similar data sets. GTA400 can also make sparse data sets using nearest point interpolation. Information identified at scattered data points is applied to surrounding areas for improved analysis and planning. The software also enables customers to create maps that will control variable rate applications with VRT capable equipment. The maps can be used with GTA Consoles, Fieldstar terminals or other in-cab terminals to manually control application rates as well as seed varieties/hybrids or input products by management zone. Management zone maps can also be exported to PDAs for field scouting or for use with in-cab terminals.
