# Compare Layers

{% @arcade/embed url="<https://app.arcade.software/share/VHCz9qU0sA44oLCcadAW>" flowId="VHCz9qU0sA44oLCcadAW" %}

Use **Compare Layers** to compare two field layers side by side in a synchronized split view. This helps you validate whether the same pattern appears across satellite imagery, yield maps, soil data, zone maps, topography, or other field analytics before making precision agriculture decisions.

Both maps stay aligned while you zoom or move the field. You can also switch layers during the review without leaving the view, which makes it faster to compare agronomic patterns and confirm management decisions.

### What you can do

* Compare satellite imagery, yield, soil, and zone layers side by side
* Keep both map views synchronized while reviewing field variability
* Add, switch, or remove layers during analysis

### Open Compare Layers

Open a field, then click **Compare Layers** in the top-right corner.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Select the layers

Choose the layers you want to compare in the left tree, then click **Compare Layers**. You can compare vegetation imagery, yield maps, soil maps, topography, and management zones in the same workflow.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Review the results

Analyze both layers side by side. Add new layers, switch existing ones, or remove layers as needed to check whether patterns match across multiple datasets.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Exit the view

Click **Close** at the top of the screen when you finish.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.geopard.tech/geopard-tutorials/product-tour-web-app/compare-layers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
