Management Zone Analyst Version 1.0 Software

    Management Zone Analyst (MZA) is a decision-aid for creating within-field management zones based on quantitative field information. It mathematically breaks up a field into natural clusters or zones based on the classification parameters and number of zones you specify.

    CALMIM

      The California Landfill Methane Inventory Model is a 1-dimensional soil gas transport and oxidation model that calculates annual landfill methane emissions based on the cover soil characteristics and annual climatic data for a given global location.

      Zip Search Version 0.9

        The purpose of this tool is to estimate latitude and longitude from a user inputted zip code. This tool has been useful in collecting latitude and longitude data for users within the US that may not have known their corresponding latitude and longitude information.

        WeedCast Version 4

          The WeedCast Software Suite is a decision aid that currently includes the WeedCast and WheatScout models. These models were created by the USDA ARS and the University of Wisconsin. The software is written in Java and is free to download and use. The source code is released under the GPL.

          SolarCalQ - Version 1

            The purpose of the SolarCalQ Version 1 JAVA model is to simulate the spectral quality of incident solar radiation for any location on the globe, down to one minute time steps.

              SeedChaser - Version 2.0

                SeedChaser is a 1-D empirical vertical soil tillage distribution model with 1 cm grid spacing that predicts vertical redistribution of weed seeds following user selected (a) sequences of tillage implements, and (b) initial seed distribution values. Results of this model are particularly suited for weed seed emergence modeling. However, the model can be adapted easily to any surface broadcasted agrochemical or incorporated residues.

                Nitrogen Decision Aid

                  The Nitrogen Decision Aid is a computerized program that predicts the amount of N mineralized from planting to side-dress or 5-leaf growth-stage. By applying just enough N-fertilizer to reach the critical soil nitrate concentration it is possible reduce this waste. This model is designed for Northern climates that will have some frost in the soil during the winter.

                  Global TempSIM - Version 1.0

                    The purpose of this tool is to estimate daily maximum and minimum air temperatures for a yearly cycle at any location on the globe.
