    Abstract: A method begins by agriculture equipment collecting current on-site gathered agriculture data regarding an agriculture region and sending at least a representation of the current on-site gathered agriculture data to a host device. The method continues with the host device processing one or more of the at least a representation of the current on-site gathered agriculture data, current off-site gathered agriculture data, historical on-site gathered agriculture data, historical off-site gathered agriculture data, and historical analysis of agriculture predictions regarding the agriculture region to produce a current agriculture prediction for the agriculture region. The method continues with the host device generating an agriculture prescription regarding at least a portion of the agriculture region based on the current agriculture prediction and sending the agriculture prescription to one or more of the agriculture equipment.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying clouds and cloud shadows in satellite imagery are described herein. In an embodiment, a system receives a plurality of images of agronomic fields produced using one or more frequency bands. The system also receives corresponding data identifying cloud and cloud shadow locations in the images. The system trains. a machine learning system to identify at least cloud locations using the images as inputs and at least data identifying pixels as cloud pixels or non-cloud pixels as outputs. When the system receives one or more particular images of a particular agronomic field produced using the one or more frequency bands, the system uses the one or more particular images as inputs into the machine learning system to identify a plurality of pixels in the one or more particular images as particular cloud locations.

    Abstract: Techniques for providing improvements in agricultural science by optimizing irrigation treatment placements for testing are provided, including analyzing a plurality of digital images of a field to determine vegetation density changes in a sector of the field. The techniques proceed by comparing a distribution of pixel characteristics in the digital images for each field sector to determine sectors in which minimal differences are present. Instructions for irrigation placements and testing may then be displayed or modified based on the results of the sector determinations.

    Abstract: Autonomous vehicles with global positioning systems are used for field inspection. A vehicle may be programmed to traverse a field, while using sensors to detect objects in the field, and then capture low-resolution images of the objects. Machine vision techniques are used with the low-resolution images to recognize the objects as crops, non-crop plant material or undefined objects. Location data is used to correlate recognized objects with digitally stored field maps to resolve whether a particular object is in a location at which crop planting is expected or not expected. Depending on whether an object in a low-resolution digital image is recognized as a crop, and whether the object is in an expected geo-location for crops, the vehicle may switch to a second image capture mode, for example, capturing a high-resolution image of the object, and/or execute a disease analysis and/or weed analysis on the images of the objects.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for defining field regions within agricultural fields. An example computer-implemented method includes identifying a field, retrieving data for the identified field, and displaying a graphical display including the identified field and at least some of the retrieved data. The method also includes receiving, via the graphical display, an input to create a field region within the identified field based on passes of an agricultural apparatus in the identified field and retrieving pass data for the passes of the agricultural apparatus in the field. The method further includes displaying, on the graphical display, the pass data, defining the field region based on the pass data, so that a boundary of the field region corresponds to a start point and an end point of each of the passes of the agricultural apparatus, and displaying, on the graphical display, field performance data constrained to the field region.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for managing crop harvesting activities is implemented by a harvest advisor computing device in communication with a memory. The method includes receiving an initial date of a crop within a field, receiving an initial moisture value associated with the crop and the initial date, and receiving a target harvest moisture value associated with the crop. The method also includes receiving field condition data associated with the field. The method further includes computing, by the harvest advisor, a target harvest date for the crop based at least in part on the initial date, the initial moisture value, the field condition data, and the target harvest moisture value, and displaying the target harvest date for the crop to the grower for harvest planning. The target harvest date indicates a date at which the crop will have a present moisture value approximately equal to the target harvest moisture value.

    Abstract: Methods and systems provided for generating an irrigation map. In one computer-implemented method, a user is instructed, by a computing device, to draw an irrigation boundary in a map of an agricultural field. In response, the computing device receives a first input, from the user, at the map of the agricultural field displayed to the user, where the input includes a point of the irrigation boundary. A second input is solicited from the user and, in turn, the computing device receives the second input, which defines a dimension of the irrigation boundary. The computing device then appends a shape of the irrigation boundary to the map, based on the point and the dimension, wherein the irrigation boundary is positioned based on the point indicated by the user.
