Setting up your farm maps with maps from John Deere Operations Centre

Last Update hace 2 años
Log into your John Deere account and navigate to the screen where you select and export your farms and Fields... by
- clicking on the Setup Menu
- clicking on the Land menu option

On the Clients And Farms tab,
click on the Farm filter button and either choose one or all or several farms (recommend you choose all farms)
now choose all fields
and click on Export

A form will appear... on that form
Choose "Export Boundaries"

On the Export tab you will see the following options.
You don't need to change anything unless you want to rename the file.

Click the "Export" button

Click on "Go to Files" to finally get that set of boundaries downloaded onto your computer

On the files screen,
1. locate the file that has just been generated (which will be a "zip" file), select it by clicking on its check box,
2. then click on "Download" ...

download to "Desktop or device" ...
by default, it will be downloaded into your Downloads folder
The downloaded file can be imported into agCommander either into the Mapping Module (Use Tools > Import an ESRI Shape File) or into the System Setup > Farms Fields configuration area and use the option on the Tools menu to import the Maps, Farms & Fields in one pass. Please note, when the import to create Farms, Fields and Maps has completed, the program will need to be restarted to see the results

....then, Browse to find the zipped up SHP files, then click on the "Set up Farms and Fields" button.
Please note: If any of the polygons are "multi-part" or "holey" as many are in the screenshot below, agCommander will import those into your Arable Areas layer. That is perfectly OK. agCommander will always use your arable areas polygons in preference to the field boundary polygons if it detects arable area polygons for any field.
