Topography; Topography Screen - Ag Leader InCommand 800 User Manual

Topography

Press "Topography" button to enter the Topography screen which allows user to setup Topography
functionality.
Record points that can be used to make a reference layer that is relative to the elevation throughout
the field. This can provide valuable information in regards to the highs and lows of a field when it might
not be visually apparent. Surveying and Tiling operations will probably benefit the most with respect
of where to place the mains and laterals in a field.
μ
ATTENTION!: Requires RTK GPS signal to collect the accurate elevation data.
Import data from mapping software such as SMS™ Advanced via .agsetup files.

Topography Screen

Multiple topographical elevation surveys are allowed for the same field. This can be useful for different applications, for
example:
• One topographical survey that is for the entire field. This will give a greater perspective of the whole field.
• An additional topographical survey, driven at very dedicated portion of the field. This would allow a greater elevation
detail in certain areas if needed.
By default the naming that is generated in the display will be Date/Time based. Export surface elevation data from software
packages like SMS Advanced into the display, and those will be tagged with the field name and the date exported (both
examples are in the screen shot).
Add points to existing topographical surveys and save them.
Only one topographical survey can be active at a time. When exported as an .agsetup or .agdata file, this will be the survey
that is exported. Non-active surveys will stay in the display. At any time, remove a topographical survey, and collect a new
one.
