2 Frustrations Sharing Data Between Different Systems Today, No Common Data Exchange Data Issues Open Ag Data Alliance (OADA) Provides an Open, Secure, and Permission Based Solution for Data Exchange Farm Organizations Coalition Ownership Collection, Access, and Control Transparency Choice and Portability Market Speculation Liability and Security Generating Value Growers are data rich and insight poor Providing means to securely exchange permission based information is key Insight is created through analytics and knowledge Real value is generated by making a decision! Major Players 2

4 Crop Health Variability is a consistent metric to monitor, reducing the need for you to interpret the visual variance 7/27/2015 Scouting Map (relative color Climate Crop Index) Quickly identify areas of concern within a field in order to prioritize efforts Quickly Spot Changes in Your Fields Track variability over time to know if something is happening in the field The scouting layer highlights the variability of the vegetation within a given field Scaled and colored to *Because the scale will change depending on the field and visually you will always see good areas and bad areas, you should not use the scouting map to compare across fields or across time. visibly maximize the variability from one area to the next - Helping you to identify the better performing areas of the field from the relatively worse performing ones For demonstration purposes only actual product may look different.
