How do you map your farm with FarmMap?
- Load an image of your farm into FarmMap. You can either use an aerial or satellite photograph (scanned from an existing photograph or purchased from a map provider), or upload the boundary from your GPS.
- Use FarmMap's simple drawing tools to trace over your fencelines. FarmMap automatically calculates and displays the areas and the name of the paddock. Paddocks can also store labels, notes on soil and vegetation types and photograps.
- Add in any other features you want to include on the map such as water pipes, drains, troughs and buildings. Each type of feature goes into its own 'layer', and you can turn each layer on and off depending on what you need to see on the screen or on a printed copy.
Practical Systems FarmMap is the complete mapping system for farmers to replace hand-drawn and cumbersome aerial plans.
