GPS/GIS Applications in Agriculture Gary T. Roberson Agricultural Machinery Systems Global Positioning System (GPS) Space and land based information system to determine precise position data. Utilizes military satellites to determine positioning information. Position based on trilateration from know satelite locations. Millions of GPS users worldwide. Most common type of system in agriculture. Selecting GPS Components Hand Held Backpack Vehicle Mounted Recreational Mapping Surveying GPS/GIS Applications Guidance Point Guidance Swath Guidance Control Variable rate application Variable depth tillage Variable irrigation Mapping Soil properties Chemical Application Chemical Prescriptions Tillage Maps Yield Mapping Pest Mapping Topographic Maps Planting Maps What Are Acceptable Accuracy Requirements? Variable fertilizer application (Swath control) Yield mapping Variable herbicide application Spray overlap control Row crop planting Seed bed formation 30 m 1 m 10 m 1 m 10 cm 10 cm 5 cm Point Guidance Target point selected on map screen. Cursor location indicates present position, target position highlighted. Cursor provides guidance to target. Swath Guidance Anchor points established to create base line on map screen. Parallel lines generated at desired swath spacing. Can be used for straight or contour swaths Light bar or similar device used to provide guidance along line. Automatic steering possible. Field Mapping Position data (georeference data) recorded at predetermined intervals. Other data recorded manually or automatically by monitor, computer, or data logger. Data displayed by geographic information system (GIS) in thematic map format. Soil Sampling Georeferenced soil samples can be collected Sampling Methods Grid sampling: intensive sampling of entire field Directed sampling: intensive sampling of particular target areas Grid Sampling Data collected for each cell or point Multiple samples combined into each cell or point sample Directed Sampling
