9798193184133: GPS and GNSS for Precision Agriculture

Synopsis

Modern farming depends on more than horsepower—it depends on knowing exactly where your equipment is, what your fields are telling you, and how to turn positioning data into better decisions.

GPS and GNSS for Precision Agriculture gives you a practical, technically grounded guide to the satellite-navigation systems behind modern precision farming. Instead of treating GPS as a mysterious box on the tractor roof, this book shows you how the technology works, why accuracy changes, and how to use it more intelligently in real field operations.
Inside, you'll learn how to:
  • Understand GPS, GNSS, multi-constellation receivers, RTK, PPP, DGPS, and correction services
  • Choose the right positioning accuracy for different agricultural applications
  • Set up and calibrate guidance and autosteer systems for more dependable field passes
  • Reduce skips and unnecessary overlap with guidance and automatic section control
  • Build and interpret yield maps, prescription maps, soil-data layers, and field boundaries
  • Apply variable-rate technology to seeding, fertilizer, and crop-protection workflows
  • Diagnose signal loss, correction interruptions, antenna problems, software issues, and common configuration errors
  • Understand how autonomous machinery, field robotics, connectivity, and AI are shaping the future of smart farming
Designed for farmers, agricultural technicians, farm managers, agronomists, equipment professionals, and students, the book bridges the gap between dense satellite-engineering texts and overly simplified farming guides. Its structured chapters, summaries, diagrams, appendices, troubleshooting references, and field-oriented explanations make it useful both as a learning resource and as an ongoing reference.
Stop guessing what your precision-agriculture system is doing.
