ND | The only info Farmworks will take for creating tile designs are from the FMX display using WM-Survey or the Nomad handheld with WM-Topo.
WM-Survey can be ran while you are planting, cultivating, or anytime you are in the field. I would not recommend to run WM-Survey in a combine as their will be inaccurate information in the elevation readings when the hopper is full vs. empty.
WM-Topo is a hand held stick for measuring elevation data in hard to reach areas (culverts, ditches, standing crop). You could also install it on a 4 wheeler, pickup, or another tractor. It wirelessly sends the readings to a handheld so there will not be any wires to drag around.
I have put in a request for Farmworks to be able to use lidar data so general design questions can be addressed. I understand the need to design off of absolute data points (in this case, meaning the best posible data available to the average producer) using RTK instead of lidar but I do see the need for the ability to at least use other data for more broad decision making situations.
