FarmerGPS has been created to provide a cost-efficient GPS guidance system and to overcome some of the limitations in other guidance packages. It is a software package designed to run on a Microsoft Windows operating system e.g. Windows XP, Windows Vista (32 bit and 64 bit), Windows 7 (32 bit and 64 bit) and Windows 8, 8.1 (32 and 64 bit).
Advantages of FarmerGPS guidance in agriculture: reducing overlap and minimizing spraying gaps, lowering fertilizer and chemical costs by reducing overlaps, minimizing environmental impact, verifying complete coverage - at the time of application, maintaining reports on all field activity, marking areas or points in the field.
FarmerGPS will work with basically any GPS receiver providing NMEA 0183 positional output. FarmerGPS uses the RMC and GGA NMEA sentences.
