1. GPS Guidance is essential.
Driving by sight and dead reckoning isn’t enough. Too much cost is at stake as Implements are wider and speeds are faster. Disk marks and foam can disappear in residue.
Solution: GPS Guidance, with or without other forms of marking, is essential on every tractor for every pass through the field.
2. Guidance & Mapping must be easy to install.
You will likely want to move Outback capabilities from one machine to another all year long. All Outback products must install easily without wrenches, bolts or drilling.
Solution: All Outback products install in less than 15 minutes.
3. Guidance & Mapping must be easy to operate.
Outback Guidance and Mapping Systems are made for every tractor, every sprayer and every operator. The features must be simple and understandable. The displays must be crystal clear. Quite simply, the units must be easy to use and easy to understand.
Solution: Anyone can master the operation of an Outback product in less than 15 minutes.
4. Put the operator at ease.
Outback Guidance must minimize drive fixation on the lights. A glance at the Steering Guide followed by a quick steering correction should leave the operator free to watch something else for a while. Outback Mapping must provide an overall picture of the work as it’s done, leaving no doubt that the passes are made properly and the job is complete.
Solution: The Outback Guidance and Mapping puts the operator at ease with immediate driving feedback and job review.
5. Guiding in contours is essential.
Let’s face it, not every piece of ground is straight. Operating a traditional light bar in contours is like driving a mountain road by watching the rear view mirror. Outback must perform real, useful contour guidance.
Solution: Outback Guidance makes smoother contour guiding easy. Adding Outback Mapping takes it to the next level.
6. Guidance & Mapping must be affordable.
The entire Outback product line is designed to reduce cost and generate income from the first day. There are no subscription fees when using WAAS or on-going operating costs… and chances are Outback will never wear out.
Solution: GPS Guidance and Mapping are now affordable for any size farmer or professional applicator.
7. Guidance must be reliable.
If there has ever been a brand that represents the KISS principle, it’s Outback. Simplicity equals dependability. Add to that the support from the local Outback Guidance Center or the factory Customer Service department and you’ll find Outback to be your trusted friend for many years to come.
Solution: Simple, rugged and dependable are the code words we live by.
8. Guidance & Mapping must be accurate.
Outback should deliver super high GPS results ranging no more than a few inches error pass-to-pass. A few feet simply isn’t acceptable. Unlike most competitors, Outback will deliver super high GPS accuracy, even with WAAS correction. Outback is simply easier to drive so the driver does a more accurate job.
Solution: Precision Superior GPS precision, even with WAAS, provides superior guidance, mapping and data collection.
9. Guidance & Mapping must work for more than spraying.
A field planted using Outback in conjunction with a disk mark is beautiful. The rows are laser straight and the contours are confident. Tillage by Outback is so efficient, saving money every minute it’s used. Fertilizing, spreading and spraying are a must for GPS Guidance and Mapping on board.
Solution: The multiple applications for Outback products generate money savings year round.
10. Guidance & Mapping will open the door to the future.
Guidance is the first essential step to precision farming. The second essential step is a bright, clear map of your work while you’re still in the field. The data collected from your Outback will literally open the door to a world of software that allows you to track the performance and analyze your overall operation.
Solution: Outback Guidance and Mapping Systems are the key to discovering and managing new profit opportunities in your operation. |
