Scenario 3 - Exchange of Field Boundaries

3.0 Overview

The geospatial definition of a field boundary is a crucial data point for applicators and emerging equipment automation. At the same time, it is a problematic concept that can vary by purpose or interested party. ADAPT models Field Boundaries separately from Fields, with the intent that any Field can have any number of boundaries.

A grower may manage boundaries in one system and desire to move them into any other system. Similarly, the grower may wish to use data generated from the actual field operation to define the boundary for future operations.

Field Boundary definitions for a grower

• Fields are defined separately from the boundaries so that any field can have multiple boundaries for different purposes.
• Boundary geometry is defined as WKT.
