How it works

From satellite pass to a task for your field team, in six steps.

  1. 1. Draw or import your boundaries

    Set up farms, orchards and blocks, with crop, variety, planting year and spacing for each block. Everything is tracked at tree level and rolled up.

  2. 2. Satellite, weather and fire data arrive

    Imagery, weather and fire hotspots for your boundaries come from Map My Crop data services. They are collected for you, so nothing needs to be uploaded.

  3. 3. Trees are located and read

    Each tree is located from its canopy and scored against thresholds for its crop and growth stage. Young trees are handled differently from mature ones.

  4. 4. Alerts appear with their reasons

    Health, pest and disease, weather, water and fire alerts show what triggered them. Scores are indicative: they tell you where to look first.

  5. 5. Your team scouts and records

    Alerts become scouting tasks. What the team finds is recorded against the tree and improves the next decision.

  6. 6. Report and plan

    Roll results into block, farm and enterprise reports, plan replanting and harvest, and track change over time.

What the satellite can and cannot see

Satellite imagery is very good at showing canopy, vigour and change across large areas. It cannot name a pest or disease on its own, and cloud can delay a clear view. That is why alerts point your team to a place and a reason, and why field records matter.

Indicative by design

Health bands, risk and yield figures have thresholds set per crop and stage, are being reviewed with agronomists, and always show their reasons. Where data is missing the product says "No data" instead of a zero.
