Abstract

Described herein are systems and methods for customizing scale and corresponding field views of agricultural fields with expand and panning operations. In one embodiment, a computer implemented method includes displaying a user interface having a scale region and a field region on a display device. The method further includes receiving, with the scale region, a user input to modify a scale of the scale region for a parameter and generating a modified scale region and also a corresponding modified field region based on the user input.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A computer implemented method for customizing scale and corresponding field views of data displays comprising:
displaying a user interface having a scale region and a field region for a parameter on a display device;
receiving, on the scale region, a user input to modify a range of scale of the scale region for the parameter; and
generating a modified scale region having a modified range of scale for the parameter and also automatically generating a corresponding modified field region based on the user input,
wherein the user input to modify the range values of the scale of the scale region for a parameter comprises at least one of expand in operation with two input points contacting the scale region and moving towards each other to expand in or an expand out operation with two input points contacting the scale region and moving away from each other to expand out.

2. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:
displaying, with the display device, the modified scale region and the corresponding modified field region.

3. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the user interface includes different display regions including one or more regions chosen from a seed population region, a singulation region, a down force region, the scale region for a parameter of a field region, and the parameter for the field region.

4. The computer implemented method of claim 3 , wherein the parameter comprises one or more items chosen from vehicle speed, machine speed, down force, population, spacing, singulation, organic matter, temperature, or any measured property.

5. A computer implemented method for customizing scale and corresponding field views of data displays comprising:
displaying a user interface having a scale region and a field region for a parameter on a display device;
receiving, on the scale region, a user input to modify a range of a scale of the scale region for the parameter; and
generating a modified scale region having a modified range of the scale for the parameter and also automatically generating a corresponding modified field region based on the user input,
wherein the user input to modify the range of the scale of the scale region for a parameter comprises an expand in operation with two input points contacting the scale region and moving towards each other to expand in to cause the scale region having different colors and a first range of values to expand into a smaller second range of values for the modified scale region and the corresponding field region automatically changes from a first set of values to a smaller second set of values for the modified field region.

6. A computer implemented method for customizing scale and corresponding field views of data displays comprising:
displaying a user interface having a scale region and a field region for a parameter on a display device;
receiving, on the scale region, a user input to modify a range of a scale of the scale region for the parameter; and
generating a modified scale region having a modified range of the scale for the parameter and also automatically generating a corresponding modified field region based on the user input,
wherein the user input to modify the range of the scale of the scale region for a parameter comprises an expand out operation with two input points contacting the scale region and moving away from each other to expand out to cause the scale region having different colors and a first range of values to expand out to a larger second range of values for the modified scale region and the corresponding field region automatically changes from a first set of values to a larger second set of values for the modified field region.

7. A computer implemented method for customizing scale and corresponding field views of data displays comprising:
displaying a user interface having a scale region and a field region for a parameter on a display device;
receiving, on the scale region, a user input to modify a range of a scale of the scale region for the parameter; and
generating a modified scale region having a modified range of the scale for the parameter and also automatically generating a corresponding modified field region based on the user input,
wherein the user input to modify the range of the scale of the scale region for a parameter comprises a panning operation to cause the scale region having different colors and a first range of values to pan to a different second range of values for the modified scale region and the corresponding field region automatically changes from a first set of values to a lower second set of values for the modified field region.

8. A computer implemented method for customizing scale and corresponding field views of data displays comprising:
displaying a user interface having a scale region and a field region for a parameter on a display device;
receiving, on the scale region, a user input to modify a range of a scale of the scale region for the parameter; and
generating a modified scale region having a modified range of the scale for the parameter and also automatically generating a corresponding modified field region based on the user input,
wherein the user input to modify the range of the scale of the scale region for a parameter comprises a panning operation to cause the scale region having different colors and a first range of values to pan to a different second range of values for the modified scale region and the corresponding field region automatically changes from a first set of values to a higher second set of values for the modified field region.

9. A computing device comprising:
a display device for displaying a user interface having a scale region and a field region for a parameter; and
at least one processor coupled to the display device, the at least one processor is configured to execution instructions to
receive, on the scale region, a user input to modify a range of a scale of the scale region for the parameter, to generate a modified scale region having a modified range of the scale for the parameter, and also to automatically generate a corresponding modified field region,
wherein the user input to modify the range of values of the scale of the scale region for a parameter comprises at least one of an expand in operation with two input points contacting the scale region and moving towards each other to expand in or an expand out operation with two input points contacting the scale region and moving away from each other to expand out.

10. The computing device of claim 9 , wherein the display device to display the modified scale region and the corresponding modified field region.

11. The computing device of claim 9 , wherein the user interface includes different display regions including one or more regions chosen from a seed population region, a singulation region, a down force region, the scale region for a parameter of a field region, and the parameter for the field region.

12. The computing device of claim 11 , wherein the parameter comprises one or more items chosen from vehicle speed, machine speed, down force, population, spacing, singulation, organic matter, temperature, or any measured property.

13. A computing device comprising:
a display device for displaying a user interface having a scale region and a field region for a parameter; and
at least one processor coupled to the display device, the at least one processor is configured to execution instructions to receive, on the scale region, a user input to modify a range of a scale of the scale region for the parameter, to generate a modified scale region having a modified range of the scale for the p
