The map below displays a record of the location and time of spraying using the track record option on a map using PDF Maps on an android smartphone. The track is recorded in real time and can be observed on the screen during the spraying process. The benefits include:-
- Compliance
- Defining precisely where one tank finished and knowing where to commence the next load
- Defining limits of areas sprayed when spot spraying
- Matched to weather records if the farm has a weather recording station
Monitoring the results of the spaying can be achieved by placing 1sq m mats on the ground prior to spraying and recording the number of target insects 12hrs after spraying. The location of mats was recorded using the Placemark option on a map loaded into an android phone using PDF Maps.
Monitoring results can be recorded on paper copies of maps of tree locations.
