Understanding the INVISION View Fields Page Guide to Understanding View Fields The View Fields page of INVISION is designed to offer users an in depth and intuitive view of a specific grower's field and trial progress. This document will guide you through the key components of View Fields, helping you navigate and utilize the platform effectively for optimal trial management.  Components of View Fields Trial Panel Location:  Left side of View Fields. Function: The Trial Panel is like the control center of View Fields. This is where users can select or change the field and/or protocol that they're viewing on the map, and it gives access to act on the protocol steps of the trial. Trial:  Displays the Trial of the Field the user is viewing. Grower Selection:  Displays the owner of the field the user is currently viewing on the map. Users can use the dropdown to cycle through other Growers within the same trial to view in View Fields, without having to go back to the Overview Page. Protocol Selection:  Displays the protocol of the field the user is currently viewing. Users can use the dropdown to select other protocols that the current field may also be enrolled in to display on View Fields. Protocol Steps:  All steps of a protocol are represented on the right side of View Fields. Protocol steps will have one or more actionable buttons listed below them. Mandatory protocol steps are distinguished with an asterisk. Protocol steps are displayed in the order  Results Button: Opens a PDF that summarizes the statistics and results for the specific field the user is viewing. Approve/Disapprove Icon:  For users that have access, this button controls the approval/disapproval to publish the harvest analytics for the specific field the user is viewing. Map Component: Location:  Central Section of View Fields. Function:  Offers a dynamic map view of a specific grower's field. Center Button:  Pans the map so that the field is centered. Zoom Level Controls:  Users can zoom the map in and out with a mouse or trackpad, but plus and minus buttons are also available to control the zoom level of the map. Map Layers: Location:  Right side of View Fields. Function:  Gives the user the ability to toggle the display of different map layers on or off. The following are examples of layers you might see in  View Fields: Trial Area:  Users with specific permissions can edit their field boundary for a specific protocol, and the resulting layer is the  Trial Area.  This is useful if unforeseen circumstances have an impact on the field, for example, flooding in a particular area of the field prevents the application of a product. In that case, the area of the field that is still active in the trial can be outline with the  Trial Area.   Field Visits:  When users complete field visits through the INVISION Mobile App , the data, including photos and location markers, are shown in View Fields. Users with specific permissions are able to edit the data, location, or photos captured in these field visits from the INVISION Platform.   Treatment Zones: Users with specific permissions can create  Treatment Zones  for fields. These  Treatment Zones represent areas of the field where different treatment procedures are carried out. For example, the green area in the photo below may represent where one area was treated with a different product that was applied to the red area. SSURGO/SWAT: SSURGO  layer for the US and  SWAT layer for Canada provide information about the soil classification for the the field. Map Layers Legend: Location:  Right side of View Fields. Function:  Provides context for the layers displayed on the map. Field Visits Location:  Right side of View Fields. Function:  Displays the data captured during field visits, including location markers shown on the map. Field Notes: Location: Right side of View Fields. Function:  Displays the data captured in field notes, including a location marker shown on the map. Field Details: Location:  Right side of View Fields.

Through this process we collect contact information about the grower, and  Field Enrollment:  Once the grower is enrolled in a trial/protocol, the field they're using for the trial needs to be enrolled. Through this process we collect the field boundary, which makes it possible to collect and analyze data specific to this field. This document will walk admins through the process of Grower Enrollment. Login to INVISION Head over to the INVISION website and login. Choose the Trial and Protocol From the Trials Overview page, select the correct Trial and Protocol that the grower needs to be enrolled into using the  Find an Enrolled Grower  panel. Open the Enrollment Panel Once you've selected the trial/protocol click the  Enroll Grower / Add Fields button at the bottom of the panel. This will open the Enrollment Panel, where you now have two options: Enroll a Grower Into A Trial For the First Time If you need to enroll a grower into a trial/protocol for the first time, click on the  Enroll a new grower button in the top right corner of the enrollment panel. This will bring up a popup where you will enter in the grower's information. You first need to check that the grower is not already in our system. Enter the growers email in the  Email Address field, and click the  Check Email button. If the grower is familiar to our system, most fields will be auto filled and you only need to select the protocol from the dropdown. Hitting the  Next button will complete the grower enrollment. If the grower is new to our system, you will need to fill out the following blank fields: Grower's first name Grower's last name Grower's phone number (optional) Select the correct protocol Hitting the  Next  button will complete the grower enrollment. Enroll a Grower That's Been Previously Enrolled If you know a grower has been enrolled in a trial previously, you'll be able to find them in the table in the Enrollment Panel. You can use the search bar at the top to search for the grower's name. There are also three filters at the top to help find your grower more easily in the table: All:  This filter will show all growers, regardless of their enrollment status Enrolled:  This filter will only show growers that are enrolled in the trial/protocol that are selected Unenrolled:  This filter will only show growers that are not enrolled in the selected trial/protocol Once you've found the grower in the table that you need to enroll, you can see the status of that grower's enrollment under the  ENROLL / ADD FILTERS  column in the table. The grower will have one of the following statuses: Enroll:  This status means the grower is not currently enrolled in any trials/protocols Re-Enroll:  This status means the grower was previously enrolled in a trial/protocol but was dropped out. View [#] enrolled fields: This status means the grower is enrolled in more than one trials/protocols Enrollment process not completed:  This status means the the grower enrollment is complete, but the field enrollment is not Select the enrollment status of the grower to enroll them in whichever trial/protocol you need. Selecting the status will open a new menu that lays out all fields that are enrolled for that grower, and the trial/protocol that they are enrolled into. To enroll the grower, select the  Add New Field  button in the top right corner. This will trigger a pop-up where you can both enroll the selected grower into a new trial/protocol, and complete their field enrollment. The  Protocol  field will default to the protocol that was originally selected, but can be changed to any protocol within the trial. Existing field boundaries can be selected from the dropdown menu under  Select Field or Create New. A new field can also be created here. For additional information, please see our Guide To Field Enrollment - For Admins . Once the field boundary is selected/created, ensure the boundary looks correct on the map, and double check that the protocol is correct. Hitting  Next will complete the enrollment process.

Field Enrollment cannot be started unless the Grower Enrollment has been completed. Please see our Guide to Enrolling a Grower In a Trial - For Admins if you haven't completed this step first. Jump to Sections Below: Enroll a Field from Grower Enrollment   Enrolling a Field That Already Exists in the System Enrolling a New Field Standalone Field Enrollment Enrolling a Field That Already Exists in the System Enrolling a New Field Enroll a Field from Grower Enrollment If you've just completed enrolling a grower into a trial, your confirmation window has an option to continue onto the field enrollment. Start Field Enrollment Click the Continue to Field Enrollment to start the process. Select Which Type of Field At this point, you have two different options for enrolling a field: Enroll a field that already exists in the system. Create a new field boundary and enroll that field. Enrolling a Field That Already Exists in the System Select A Previously Created Field If you have enrolled fields in a trial before, you can select them from the  dropdown menu. You do not need to redraw boundaries for fields that have already been created and enrolled in a previous trial. Check the Boundary After selecting one of your fields from the dropdown menu, check that the boundary is correct by viewing it on the map. Select Trial Tag (if applicable) If your Trial uses Agency or Territory Codes, you will be able to select them from the Trial Tags dropdown. Confirm and Enroll If this is the correct field, hitting the  Next button will enroll that field. You should then see a confirmation screen. Click  Done  to complete the enrollment process. Enrolling a New Field Create A Field Boundary To start enrolling your field, you click  Create New  beside the dropdown. Name Your Field Choose a unique name for your field and enter it into the Field Name  box. Select Trial Tag (if applicable) If your Trial uses Agency or Territory Codes, you will be able to select them from the Trial Tags dropdown. Decide Which Boundary Creation Method to Use From here, you have three options to create your field boundary: Draw the Boundary Select  Create Using the Map   You can use the search bar to navigate to the area on the map where your field is located. You can also search by State-Township-Range-Section. Once you're in the correct area, you have two different drawing tools available to you. The  rectangular polygon tool will create a rectangular polygon shape as you drag your mouse. The  star shaped polygon   tool will allow you to drop connected points to create a polygon. This tool provides more control over the shape of the field boundary you create. Double clicking on a point you've created will give you the option to edit that point, allowing you to move it around. You can use the trash can icon to delete the boundary if you need to start over. Once your boundary looks correct, clicking the  Next button will enroll the field you've just created. Select  Done  on the confirmation box to complete the field enrollment process. 2. Select a Pre-made Boundary The second option to create a field boundary is to select one or more pre-made boundaries, also known as Common Land Units (CLUs) in the US or Legal Land Description (LLDs) for Canada. Select  Create Using the Map . Click the  Turn on Pre-made Boundaries   button to use these boundaries. You can use any of the previously mentioned search methods to find the location of your field. Scroll in on the map, and you should start to see the boundaries outlined in white. Clicking inside a boundary will select it. Clicking a second time will deselect it. Continue selecting boundaries until the shape of your field is complete.  Selected boundaries must be contiguous. Once your field looks correct, selecting the  Next  button will enroll the field you created. Click  Done on the confirmation box to complete the enrollment process. 3. Upload   a Shapefile The third boundary creation option is to upload a zipped  shapefile . Shapefiles are a popular file format for geographic information system (GIS) software. A shapefile actually consists of a collection of files with the same filename but different extensions that work together. These files store different types of data: .shp : This file stores the geometry of the feature, which, in the case of a polygon shapefile, includes the coordinates of the vertices that make up the polygon boundaries. .shx : This is the index file that allows for efficient access to the geometry data stored in the .shp file. .dbf : This file is a dBASE table that stores attribute data or information about each feature in the shapefile. For polygons, this might include information such as the area's name, population, or any other relevant data. All of the above files are necessary, and need to be zipped into one file before uploading to INVISION.  Select  Upload a Field Boundary. You can click inside the dotted boundary, which will open the files available on your computer, and select the zipped shapefile. You can also drag and drop a file into the dotted boundary. Once the field boundary file is correctly uploaded, you will see a preview of the boundary on the map.  Ensure that it is the correct field. If it happens to be the wrong field, selecting  UPLOAD again will reset the page so that you can upload another file. Clicking the Next  button will enroll that field. Click  Done on the confirmation box to complete the enrollment process.
