Publication number: 20240008390Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing agricultural activities in a field region. In one example, a computer-implemented method includes identifying temperature grids for the field region, and identifying weather stations for the temperature grids. Each weather station is located at a weather station location in the temperature grids. The computer-implemented method also includes computing weight values based on the weather station locations of the weather stations, such that the weather stations that are more proximate to their respective grids have higher weights than weather stations that are less proximate to their respective grids, and receiving temperature readings from the weather stations. The computer-implemented method then includes computing a plurality of weighted temperatures based on the weight values, computing field condition data for the field region based on the weighted temperatures, and determining at least one field activity for the field region based on the field condition data.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: January 11, 2024Inventors: SIVAN ALDOR-NOIMAN, ERIK ANDREJKO, MOOREA LEE BREGA, TRISTAN D'ORGEVAL, JAMES ETHINGTON, KATHERINE KRUMME, EVIN LEVEY, ELI J.

Patent number: 11375674Abstract: A method for generating digital models of potential crop yield based on planting date, relative maturity, and actual production history is provided. In an embodiment, data representing historical planting dates, relative maturity values, and crop yield is received by an agricultural intelligence computer system. Based on the historical data, the system generates spatial and temporal maps of planting dates, relative maturity, and actual production history. Using the maps, the system creates a model of potential yield that is dependent on planting date and relative maturity. The system may then receive actual production history data for a particular field. Using the received actual production history data, a particular planting date, and a particular relative maturity value, the agricultural intelligence computer system computes a potential yield for a particular field.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2020Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: Climate LLCInventors: Ying Xu, Erik Andrejko
