How to Enter Manual Data

Guide to Uploading Machine Data  

 Uploading or submitting your planting, application, or harvest data to the INVISION Platform is a straightforward and easy process. You have three options available to you: uploading files from your device, connecting to a third party, or manually entering data. Continue reading this guide to discover the best way for you to upload your data to INVISION. 

 

 Navigate to Your Field  

 

 Find the field you have machine data for on the Trials Overview Page. 

 Open that field into View Fields.

 

 For additional help with this step, check out our  Guide To Understanding the INVISION Overview Page . 

 

 

 

 

 Find the Correct Protocol Step 

 

 Locate the protocol step you need to upload data for. The three most common steps are the following: 

 

 Planting 

 Application 

 Harvest 

 

 

 Click on the  Upload  button under the step you have data for. 

 

 

 This will bring up a new menu where you will have different selection options to upload data. If you have no machine data files and need to manually upload data, Zones/Manual Harvest is the option for you. How you manually upload depends on the type of data you need to submit. 

 

 

 

 Planting/Application 

 

 Select Zones 

 

 If you need to submit planting or application information manually, you'll need to draw in zones. Click on the  Zones  option. 

 

 

 Fill Out Operation Date 

 

 Select the date the operation took place. 

 

 

 Draw A Zone 

 

 You will need to draw a zone for each product in your protocol. You have a variety of polygon tools to work with:

 

 The  rectangular polygon tool  will create a rectangular polygon shape as your drag your mouse. 

 The  star shaped polygon   tool  will allow you to drop connected points to create a polygon. 

 The  Pin Tool   will allow you to drop pins at specific latitude + longitude measurements to assist you in zone creation. 

 

 

 

 

 Make Edits to Your Zones 

 

 You can double click on zones you've created to edit them.

 

 You can select any of the vertices, which will allow you to drag them around to create the shape you need. 

 

 

 Use the trash can icon to delete any zones or pins you're unhappy with. 

 

 

 Grower Standard Practice 

 

 You might need to draw in a zone for any untreated areas of the field, sometimes referred to as the  Grower Standard Practice (GSP)  area. 

 Whether you need to or not will depend on if the  Untreated   functionality is disabled or not. Reach out to your point of contact with INTENT if you're unsure. 

 

 

 Select Your Products 

 

 For each zone you draw, you need to select which Product is associated with it. 

 

 

 Submit Manual Planting/Application Data 

 

 Once your operation date is filled out, your zones are drawn, and products are assigned, you're ready to manually submit your data. Click the  Save  button to continue. 

 If the submission was successful, you'll see a notification in the bottom left corner of View Fields, and you'll see your newly created zones on the map. 

 Some roles have the credentials to edit these zones, called  Treatment Zones.  

 

 If you don't see the edit icon in View Fields next to the Treatment Zones but need them edited, reach out to your contact at INTENT. 

 

 

 

 

 

 For additional help, follow along with this video demonstrating how to manually create treatment zones: 

 

 Harvest 

 

 Treatment Zones  are necessary to submit manual harvest data. A Planting or Application step must be completed before manual harvest data can be submitted. 

 Select Manual Harvest 

 

 If you do not have a harvest machine data file, you need to submit your harvest data manually. Select the Manual Harvest  option. 

 

 

 Select Harvest Date 

 

 Enter in the date when the harvest occurred.
