The complete nitrogen management service using satellite imagery to provide accurate nitrogen treatment plans and mapping to supplement advice on rates and timing of applications. Unique in the UK,Precise N-Maps uses raw satellite data processed by our own experts and thus avoiding the problems associated with cloud inclusion present in other services.Conversion of the data to variable N plans is based on the use of a our own decision support system and dedicated software.
The N-MAPS service is based on the collection of digital images in
the Infra red and visible ranges of the spectrum showing the whole field,
obtained by satellite, which pick out the variability of crop growth. Conversion
to variable nitrogen application maps is based on the application of a
well proven and unique decision support system through the use of dedicated
software . Part of this process is the incorporation of data such as soil
mineral nitrogen levels, plant measurements, and the farmer’s yield and
quality aspirations. Recommendations cover not only rates and timing of
N and choice of N strategy but also which of the applications to apply
variably ( one, two, or all three)
Favourable outcomes have been achieved
using the N-Maps service:
