The GeoStar® Land forming Control System automatically records your XY position using differential GPS and links it to a Z elevation position, using a rotating laser, to create an accurate topographic or elevation map of your field. The information is stored on a PCMCIA card. Transfer it to your office computer and use it with AgGPS® MultiPlane® planning software to design the best water management solution for local conditions. The design output from the AgGPS MultiPlane software can be used as a cut sheet or loaded into the Geostar system to automatically control the machine to the proposed design.
