2015 Tasks for Field Operations 2015 Tasks 1. Develop specific use cases from the SPADE, PAIL and ADAPT projects (e.g. seeding, crop protectant, harvest, and irrigation) to illustrate the ontological structure of ISO standards. 2. For each use case, begin developing a common database of definitions for the “Cultural Practice, Operation, and OperationTechnique” in the ontological structure of ISO standards. Where available, select definitions from ISO and other standards organizations. 3. Identify those elements in the ontological structure of ISO standards that require “reference” data. 4. Demonstrate how a standard Application Programming Interfaces (API) can be used to remotely access use case reference data from companies. 5. After review by the Standards and Guidelines committee, incorporate the definitions database into the AgGlossary.

IRGWG • Insurance, Government, and Regulatory focus • Also focused on grower concerns, such as sustainability (FieldToMarket). • Has cultivated a working relationship with FSA, RMA, NRCS. Looking to include other agencies.
• Multiple areas of interest • Spray drift, manure, NRCS conservation compliance, water quality, report specification / encapsulation. • Shift scope to all of AgGateway? • The IRGWG and PAC will soon be asked whether to convert the working group to an AgGateway-wide committee. • Need to establish leadership and include members from other councils.

From SPADE to ADAPT • AgGateway Precision Ag Council chartered Summer 2010 • AgGateway Field Operations Working Group in November 2011
demonstrated data exchange between various companies. • SPADE (Standardized Precision Ag Data Exchange) project was chartered in August 2012 to develop use cases and identify gaps in ISO11783. SPADE 2 (February, 2014) and SPADE 3 charter in dev. • SPADE Conversion Toolbox proof of concept was started in June 2013 to create a data model and plugins for conversion of data between applications…tested at Plugfest in Lincoln, NE May 2014. • ADAPT charter completed October, 2014 with the key deliverable = a production level, open source tool kit for use by the precision ag industry.

Technical Team – how you can help • Do you have a plugin that needs to be created for your company’s format? • Are you interested in creating an AgGateway plugin for an industry standard
format? ○ Provide architecture for Object Model and API. ○ Provide AgGateway ADAPT plugins for ISO, SPADE, shapefile, etc. ○ Provide code governance practices. ○ Provide a forum for fielding and approving new feature requests. ○ Provide support, maintenance, and updates to Object Model, API, and AgGateway ADAPT Plugins. ○ Provide code repository, best practices, documentation, sample code, build system.
○ Time Commitment: ○ Pre-version 1: 4-8 hours per week including a one hour weekly meeting ○ Post-version 1: 1-3 hours per week (assume more companies to participate at that point and we can spread the work).

Presentation goals for MYM Business Section
Session description: update on the Agricultural Data Application Programming Toolkit (ADAPT). Our focus has been to implement the work done in the SPADE efforts (SPADE1 & 2) in a way that the agricultural software community can evolve the components to meet their future needs. There are business and technical aspects of the implementation that we will provide an update on during this session. This time is designed to give a good overview of the approach and status of the project to those that aren't as familiar with it. We intend to have time for discussion as part of this session. Outline from 5/22/2015 Business Team discussion: Approx 20 minute review on key items
mission/purpose of ADAPT High level implementation details Why Open Source approach? get folks to want to participate (on ADAPT itself/develop plugins) handout that details how they can participate. Outline working session - goal to make decisions (OS licensing and governance framework). Need to coordinate with Eric.
