Challenge

Though the agronomists at Advanced Agrilytics were doing good science, but multi-million-dollar farms require more than someone’s good word to put faith in predictions for the upcoming season. Gathering data and crunching numbers is neither glamorous nor easy to understand. AA needed a way to show its customers the data behind the figures they were providing in a way that customers could understand and appreciate.

Solution

Skyward developed a mobile application that provides growers with a visual way to view data that supports AA’s recommendations on a field by field level.

API Encapsulation – The AA database was encapsulated in an API scheme. This makes the data within the database accessible to secure and authorized outside applications.

Data Visualization App – Skyward created a mobile application that overlays visual representations of the data AA was producing on top of the customers’ own fields. These heatmaps and data displays served to illustrate the immense amount of data and labor poured into every acre of their land.

Scouting Alerts – The app emphasized the detailed attention that AA gives to its clients’ fields by allowing the company’s field agents to create emergency alerts when creating scouting reports. These alerts allowed growers to respond to specific problems discovered in the scouting process quickly, and often recover the value of the land.
