How do I integrate with John Deere Operations Center, Climate FieldView and other farm platforms?
Farmers won't retype data. If your product doesn't connect to the platforms they use, it's extra work.
- Which platforms first?
- How do we get API access?
- What data should flow?
Find out which platforms your customers use, then apply to their developer or partner programs, such as Develop with Deere for Operations Center. Plan data flows: field boundaries, operations, yield and as-applied data in, prescriptions or results out, always with the farmer's permission. Build, test with real farm accounts and list your integration in the partner directory. Track usage by integration.
Typical data flows
| Direction | Data |
|---|---|
| In | Boundaries, operations, yield, as-applied |
| Out | Prescriptions, results, records |
| Both | Equipment and field IDs |
