Video Tutorial

The tutorial provides an in-depth explanation of the main features of GeoPard's integration with the John Deere Work Planer.

Work Plan Capabiltites Overview

A detailed overview of each step in the process is presented in the following paragraphs.

First Work Plan

Rx Map Preparation

To export Rx Map (ZonesMap with assigned Rates) the following conditions of the ZonesMap should be met:

1. A ZonesMap should have assigned Rates.

2. A Field should be synchronized with John Deere Operations Center: either imported from John Deere Operations Center or exported into it.

Start Work Plan Creation

Export Rx Map into the John Deere Operations Center as a Work Plan by clicking on the drop-down menu.

Start Work Plan Creation

Then you will enter the Work Plan Configuration mode, where you can define the type of Work Plan to create (1), select the GeoPard maps to include (2), and assign Products (3).

Multiple Rx Maps in Work Plan

There are two types of Work Plans: Seeding and Application. If you want to combine seeding and fertilizing operations using different Rx Maps, you can add multiple maps within the Seeding type.

Add the 2nd Application (STEP 1)

Add the 2nd Application (STEP 2)

Add the 2nd Application (STEP 3)

Assign Products

The list of Products is retrieved from the John Deere Operations Center. Therefore, Crop Varieties, Fertilizers, Chemicals (including Tank Mix), and Blend Mix should be preconfigured there in advance.

Select Products and Units from the associated dropdowns.

Select Products and Units

If there are no Products in the selected application type, GeoPard will prompt you to add them in the John Deere Operations Center.

Ask to add Products

Export to John Deere

Click the Export button to send the configured Work Plan to the John Deere Operations Center.

Export Work Plan

Clicking the Go to Work Plan button you will be directly redirected to the just created Work Plan in the John Deere Operations Center.

Advanced Work Plan with Multiple Products

A common request is to use a single ZonesMap for multiple operations, such as applying various products. The integration between GeoPard and the John Deere Operations Center supports this functionality. Detailed step-by-step guidance is provided in the following paragraphs.

Rx Map Preparation

To export any Rx Map (ZonesMap with assigned Rates) the following conditions of the ZonesMap should be met:

1. A ZonesMap should have assigned Rates, with more than one product for our case.

2. A Field should be synchronized with John Deere Operations Center: either imported from John Deere Operations Center or exported into it.

Here is an Rx Map: a ZonesMap with both Product1 and Product2 assigned.

Rx Map: ZonesMap with 2 Products

Create Work Plan

Let's begin exporting the ZonesMap into MyJohnDeere as a Work Plan. The most important step is to select the same ZonesMap twice, each time with a different assigned product. As mentioned earlier, Product1 and Product2 were assigned in the previous step.

After clicking Export, the Work Plan will be created and sent to MyJohnDeere. A direct link will be provided. It is mandatory to click this link and finalize the product assignments in MyJohnDeere.

Work Plan with 2 Products was created in MyJohnDeere

On the Work Plan page, it is required to select the appropriate attribute from the existing options to link the John Deere product with the RxMap product. In the example below, seeding rates are located in the Product1 column.

Next, run the selection process for Product2.

The final results will appear as shown below. Please do not forget to click the Save button afterward.
