New Crop Scouting App
July 30, 2013 Crop scouting software, Rev!ID, offers growers the ability to electronically scout and record common crop issues quickly and simultaneously. From Rev!Co, Rev!ID provides consultants and field scouts one central tool and field reference that leverages integration of the growers and precision ag field boundary data.
Rev!ID hit the market May 1. According to the company, it is the first mobile all-in-one scouting tool with capabilities to scout more than 300 crops. The app also has a reference library of more than 1,500 issue types. Farmers, retailers, crop consultants, and field scouts can work independently or together and collaborate via Rev!ID for synchronized records.
Rev!Co partners with SST Software
Rev!Co works with prominent companies around the world, such as SST Software, a leader in agricultural information management.
The Rev!Co scouting app Rev!ID leverages the power of SST’s agX issue and crop taxonomy data to drive the recording of field-level issues and disorders. In addition, users can automatically sync with boundary providers such as SST Software through the Rev!ID open API. Users can also draw their own field boundary lines or upload .shp files.
“Today, retailers and consultants use multiple files to manage records about farm fields,” said Mark Green, vice president of Rev!Co. “With Rev!ID, we deliver value to the retailer in two specific ways: we integrate existing SST Summit field boundaries capturing scouting data on the same field boundaries that the retailer services the farmer; and the scouting data can be an important input to the operational analysis for the farmer by the retailer’s precision ag departments.”
A Real-Time View
Connected with the Rev!Co retailer management software platform, Rev!Matic, retailer field sales consultants now have a real-time view of what is happening on and around the fields of their customers, and can take immediate action or see what was ordered to resolve a scouting issue.
Users can take pictures of scouting events with their mobile device and create field-specific reports. Then, they can email results back to the retail office, applicators, and farmers.
Rev!ID also uses its own “Wiktionary” photo and reference tool to harness the power of groupthink, allowing users to cross-check photos and diagnoses from the palm of the hand.
All data is stored on a secured Rev!ID Web management site. Users can set up collaborators for shared scouting events, manage multiple accounts, users, and invoicing, track issues, edit and customize reports, download, and share.
Rev!ID can be downloaded from the iTunes store. For more information, go to RevIDApp.com.
