Just to make it clear - our software works with both vector and raster analytics (samples: raster LIDAR elevation, raster & vector yield, raster any layer, custom raster color schema). The system automatically processes/interpolates any vector layer and you have several view of the same data (Raw and Processed).
Raster interpolated data in the end also has spatial resolution. It looks smoother because of visual representation of value changes (gradient vs classes). 

Most of modern monitors don't support raster Rx (see below chatgpt reply, it's very similar to our experience). Nevertheless, from GeoPard you can import rx in both raster and vector formats (as an example, one of use standards is a raster file). 

After the operation/season you want to calculate profit maps, accuracy of operations (Rx vs as-applied/planted), once you have well defined grid - it becomes an easy task. 



I have a question about your software. If you have 5 zones and a different rate for each zone how many rates does the RX have going to the machine? Does it interpolate the rates for smoother machine operation?

Probably the best example of a raster based RX is the Falcon 2. 6 products at 3 meter resolution in tif format, but unfortunately there was not a machine capable of truly utilizing it at the time. RX was exported to 3.5 inch floppy disks 1 field per disk. We still have people using them and get a few support calls a year about exporting to them. Older JD monitors also used grx and Ag Leader used irx rasters. This reduced the problems with polygon limitations that we see in today's monitors. Most monitors have gone backwards as far as handling precise detailed RX. I believe this is due to most software solutions not having the ability to export detailed RX.

After the season running Net Revenue, seed efficiency, nutrient efficiency scripts is very important, although too many people do not check themselves. Data analysis is very important.
