Why clean yield data?
Yield data ALWAYS contain problems Operational problems Data collection errors Calibration issues Sensor system related problems Sensor failure, noise, accuracy issues Timing/filtering issues for individual sensors Multiple sensors can magnify problems

Basic yield calculation Yield
k
MC Width
Flow Velocity
where
k
is used to account for unit conversion factors, and MC is a moisture correction factor based upon a crop specific market reference.

Dealing with yield map errors
All yield maps contain some errors that should be removed before analysis Manufacturers’ software does a good job of dealing with many simpler problems They have a tougher time with “trial-and-error” type settings (i.e. delay time – set, view, adjust) Manual editing (point, transect, area, etc.) must be done elsewhere (generally in a GIS) A software package was needed that provided all of these tools in one place

Yield Editor
version 2.0
In 2010 we began developing a new version of Yield Editor that would automate more of the yield data cleaning process Delay time Overlapped travel at end rows and partial swaths Unrealistic point yield values “Smart” thresholds for other filtering parameters Batch mode operation
