Precision maps - Surety Maps outline

Precision maps assist farmers by showing them precise locations in the field and providing them specific information about that location. A precision map is a map that is made up of geo-referenced data that can then be used to show information about a precise location in a field, as well as information on crop moisture levels, soil nutrients levels, crop yield and much more.
