Simplot Advisor 3.0
Field sampling and scouting
Free
The Simplot Advisor 3.0 iOS App provides a field tool to enable Simplot crop advisors and associates to complete field-based sampling and scouting with real-time data syncing and full offline capabilities.
• Download growers and view their farms, fields, and plantings.
• View field and planting boundaries on the map.
• Complete offline GPS-enabled soil and plant tissue sample collection
• Grid, zone, target and freeform sampling modes for point and composite samples
• Sample using pre-defined field targets
• Request lab recommendations for your sampling job
• Share lab check-in sheets directly from the field via text message and email
• Real-time background cloud sync automatically keeps everyone updated
• Data synced from the device in real-time as records are created while connected
• Data generated while offline is queued and sent automatically once a connection is detected
NOTE
• Use of this app requires a Simplot Advisor 3.0 user account
