When boundary files are imported into SKY Mapping, overlapping boundaries may be present and/or the Fields may not be indicated as linked to SKY Mapping from the Agvance Hub once the process is complete.
Linking a Field to the Agvance Hub
- In SKY Mapping, navigate to the Customer/Field which is not showing as linked in the Agvance Hub.
- Select the vertical Ellipsis to the right of the file name, then choose View/Edit Field.
- On the General Information menu, select the X to the right of the field name.
- Selecting the Field Name box displays a list of all available fields from the Agvance Hub for the selected customer. Choose the matching Field from this list, then select Save.
- The field will be linked correctly in the Agvance Hub as indicated by the checkmark in the Mapping column of the Field selection window.
Correcting Overlapping Field Boundaries
- When importing boundaries, a file displaying in yellow text indicates the boundary must be corrected before linking it to the Agvance Hub.
- Select the vertical Ellipsis to the right of the file name, then choose Edit Customer/Field.
- The overlapping field perimeters display in the mapping window.
- Choose Draw from the menu at the top of the page.
- The perimeter can be manually modified by selecting a point on the perimeter and dragging it to the desired location. The Clip option can also be used as a quick edit tool, which cuts the field perimeter at the overlapping point.
- Once the overlap has been corrected, select Save. The file name will now display in black text and the field can be added.
Note: Any large overlaps must be manually reconciled. The drawing tools can be used to edit boundaries with large overlaps, or a new field boundary can be manually drawn.
Making Corrections to Unmatched Customers
- When importing boundaries, a file displaying in red text indicates the boundary contains information which must be corrected before linking it to the Agvance Hub.
- Select the vertical Ellipsis to the right of the file name and choose Edit Customer/Field.
- If a matching Customer is not available in the data, a Customer Name must be selected on the Edit Field Boundary window.
- Enter the corresponding field under Farm Name.
- Select or enter the Field Name.
- Once all information has been entered, select Save. The file name will now display in black text and the Field can be added.
Removing Import Files for Existing Fields
- When importing boundaries, a file displaying in red text may indicate a Field with a boundary already exists for that boundary to be imported.
- To verify a Field already exists in the system and the imported boundary is duplicating the existing Field, select the Ellipsis to the right of the file name and choose Edit Customer/Field.
- Select the polygon for the boundary to be imported on the map. Then, choose Delete from the toolbar at the top. The pre-existing field boundary should remain visible on the map after the boundary to be imported is deleted.
- Select Cancel on the Edit Field Boundary window.
- Select the Ellipsis to the right of the file name again and choose Remove. This removes the file from the import process.
