Filed:

Jun 6, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/456438

Inventors:

James Wood - Essex VT, US
Warren McFall - Boise ID, US

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705/008000

Abstract:

One method embodiment for resource management planning includes compiling regulatory requirements applicable to a resource, identifying the resource conditions that satisfy the compiled requirements, developing a computer implemented tool for selecting management practices that will satisfy the identified conditions when implemented, and all regulatory agencies interested in the compiled regulatory requirements agreeing that the selected management practices will satisfy the identified conditions when implemented. In one embodiment, a computer readable medium includes instructions thereon for making all regulatory requirements applicable to an agricultural resource available to an agricultural producer through a single source and then selecting management practices that will satisfy the regulatory requirements when implemented. In another embodiment, a computer readable medium includes instructions thereon for generating a resource management plan that addresses all regulatory requirements applicable to a resource.

International Classification:

G06F017/00

US Classification:

707/100000

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a resource management planning system includes a web server having access to digital imagery of geographic areas and geospatial information associated with the digital imagery, computer programming for compiling geospatial information for a site selected from the digital imagery, and computer programming for generating a resource management plan for the site based on the geospatial information. In one embodiment, a method for resource management planning includes associating geospatial information with digital imagery of geographic areas, compiling geospatial information for a site selected from the digital imagery, defining a planning unit within the site, defining characteristics of the planning unit, and generating a resource management plan for the planning unit based on defined characteristics.

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a resource management planning system that includes a web server having access to digital imagery of geographic areas and geospatial information associated with the digital imagery, computer programming for compiling geospatial information for a site selected from the digital imagery, and computer programming for generating a conservation plan identifying resource problems for the site and identifying practices that when implemented are expected to solve the resource problems. In another embodiment, the system includes computer programming for generating a nutrient management plan identifying nutrient management practices for agricultural operations on a selected site in which nutrients are applied to the land and/or animal waste or other bio-nutrients are handled.
