Using prescription maps
A prescription map is a detailed map of a field. In this map the field is split up into areas. The
prescription map contains information on how the product(s) are to be applied in each area of the
field.
When the prescription map has been loaded, the terminal checks via GPS coordinates of the vehicle
what application rates are needed according to the prescription map and transfers this information to
the appropriate ISOBUS job computer.
The terminal can open prescription maps in two formats:
▪ Shape format (*.shp)
– The ISOBUS-TC app is used to open a prescription map in shape format.
– Multiple prescription maps can be imported.
– Only one prescription map can be used at a time.
▪ ISO-XML format
– The prescription map must be added to an ISO-XML task on a PC.
– The prescription map can only be used in combination with an ISO-XML task through the
ISOBUS-TC application.
– The format is supported by all ISOBUS job computers, regardless of their manufacturer.
– Up to four prescription maps can be used simultaneously in one task. This way, for
implements that have more than one metering system, you can use a prescription map for
each system. Prerequisite: MULTI-Control license. The procedure is described in the
MULTI-Control II instructions.
