RTK

RTK

RTK from John Deere provides highly accurate, repeatable corrections from global positioning system (GPS) to John Deere’s suite of precision ag applications. RTK utilizes a local, ground-based reference station that transmits the high-accuracy corrections to a StarFire receiver on a machine via RTK Radios. StarFire RTK accuracy depends on the distance between the base station and the machine. The shorter the distance, the more accurate the system will be. In general, the accuracy of StarFire RTK is described below. 

  • +/- 2.5cm (1 in.), 95 percent of the time

  • Up to 20 km (12 miles) line of sight

  • Measured at the receiver every 15 minutes

  • We have 70+ RTK towers spread out between Illinois and Wisconsin

AutoPath™

AutoPath™

AutoPath™ is here to help producers more accurately document and follow each row of crops in fields throughout the season. This new precision ag application uses data collected from the first pass in the field, either planting or strip-till, to establish precise row guidance for all subsequent field passes, no matter the machine type or width of the equipment.

Gator Mapping Services

Gator Mapping Services

We now offer field mapping with our Gator using RTK signal. We can map boundary lines, waterways, as well as guidance lines. This works great when using Section Control to plant or spray through waterways. You can also utilize these boundaries to ensure that you or your operators are in the correct field. Simply hit the “Find Field” button when you pull into a field with a mapped boundary and it will know the Client, Farm, and Field.
