GEOFARM PRO / CONNECTED TOOLS

Soil sampling

Better sampling starts with a better plan.

Define the boundary, method, density and grid geometry. Generate identified points and export the plan to guide collection and later match laboratory results.

Application illustration: Soil sampling
01 / INPUT

Your starting point

Field boundary, sampling density and plan identifier.

02 / PROCESS

Why use this tool

Standardize point distribution and sample traceability.

03 / OUTPUT

Your deliverable

Georeferenced sampling plan with point identifiers.

INSIDE THE TOOL

Control over the details.
Clarity for the decision.

From data preparation to final delivery, explore the controls that bring precision to planning and connect every stage of your work.

01 / GEOFARM PRO

Density in hectares per point

Enter how many hectares each point represents. Compare spatial density with sample count and budget.

02 / GEOFARM PRO

Distance spacing or cell dimensions

Choose regular spacing or cell dimensions. The grid organizes sampling distribution according to your strategy.

03 / GEOFARM PRO

Grid rotation and map alignment

Rotate the grid to follow a field reference. Use the field axis or a direction defined on the map.

04 / GEOFARM PRO

Centered points or alternating half-cell offsets

Compare centered cells and alternating placement to adapt the layout to different field shapes.

05 / GEOFARM PRO

Minimum edge distance and point limit

Set boundary setback and maximum point count. These controls help reconcile distribution and sampling logistics.

06 / GEOFARM PRO

Identification, saving and plan export

Identify points and save the plan associated with the field. The field file guides collection and later laboratory matching.

APPLICATION SCENARIO

How it fits
into field work.

To prepare a sampling campaign, the team compares point count with the laboratory budget. Rotation, edge setback and grid positioning help organize field execution.

  1. Prepare the foundationField boundary, sampling density and plan identifier.
  2. Configure and reviewGrid rotation and map alignment. Centered points or alternating half-cell offsets.
  3. Validate the deliverableGeoreferenced sampling plan with point identifiers.

PRECISION YOU CAN MEASURE

Sampling that directs fertility investment

Plan georeferenced points, take the route to the field and use results to build spatial recommendations.

CONVENTIONAL → PRECISION AGRICULTURE

Compares one sampling campaign and one application. Sampling density does not automatically determine rate reduction. Enter the average recommended rate after agronomic interpretation. Sampling and laboratory costs are separate from technology cost.

ECONOMIC COMPARISON

Enable JavaScript to calculate this scenario.

Editable example per campaign or project. Enter local costs and the share of software, correction signal, equipment and services used in this scenario. Results are estimated from inputs; defaults are not research averages. Do not add benefits from studios representing the same operation.

How we calculate +

Samples = ceil(area ÷ ha/sample). Each scenario cost = area × average rate × price + samples × cost per sample. Subtract technology from gross benefit.

Net benefit = conventional cost − precision cost, including technology. Net return on technology = net benefit ÷ allocated technology cost × 100; displayed only when this cost is greater than zero. Only described components are compared, not the full crop budget.

Explore scenarios, track the effect of each input and export the comparison to discuss with your team.

Technical basis and references

References support the agronomic mechanisms. Example values are editable assumptions, not percentages attributed to the studies.
