Augmented Reality In-Field Observation Creation and Visualization in Underperforming Areas

To precisely diagnose and address farming issues that led to crop yield underperformance, agronomists need to conduct field trips at the targeted underperforming areas and record the observed issues to support farming decisions. Traditional field data visualization tools may not provide intuitive visualizations to support field trip investigations at targeted underperforming areas. This paper presents an Augmented Reality in-field observation tool to navigate agronomists to annotate the observed issues at precisely targeted underperforming areas. These recorded observation AR annotations are then synchronized in a Web-based Interactive Multi-Layer Mapping Tool for a complete precision farming decision-making process.
