Decision Support Tool for Operational Planning of Field Operations

摘要: Precision Farming (PF) and Controlled Traffic (CTF) are well known concepts within agriculture, but the adoption rate of these practices by farmers is still very low, because lack needed skills or fail to see benefits using practices. If want reap full benefits, operational planning must be carried out in advance for entire crop cycle, before season begins. However, across cycle a non-trivial task, since efficiency each operation determined range selected features (e.g., wayline direction, speed, vehicle capacity, sequence, turn type). To that end, we present, this paper, an application can support with field operations CTF, automating process. It provides farmer overview all his operations, acts as decision tool during The allows store manage equipment information, which used input, when setting up CTF generating way lines route plans individual fields. One key provided comparison feature, where compare alternative solutions, based on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Results from example field, different machine setups, presented illustrate how KPIs visualisations
