Sentera’s new platform FieldAgent consolidates and replaces all of the company’s variants of the AgVault and OnTop products. FieldAgent incorporates a range of analysis and integration tools, and data management functions. The platform includes mobile, cloud, web, and desktop components.

"Our software products started out as a better way to store, organize, and visualize imagery and other kinds of data,” says Eric Taipale, Sentera CEO. “Over time, we've deployed computer vision, machine learning, and other data exploitation products that help crop consultants, advisors, and growers make decisions. The FieldAgent name is a better representation of the full breadth of data analysis, management, and platform connectivity features that we offer today. We chose the name because it describes what we do - we act on behalf of our customers to gather data from the field and make it useful."

FieldAgent capabilities include:

- Unlimited QuickTile and orthomosaic map generation
- Analytics products that support essential agronomic workflows
- Zone map creation
- Elevation map creation
- API integrations with leading platforms
- Broad, standards-compliant data format compatibility
- Prescription generation with direct and API-based export to machinery
- Drone-based data acquisition and flight control


A hybrid on-field and cloud processing model efficiently manages real-time data production for users in real-world conditions. FieldAgent seamlessly synchronizes data, analytics, and prescriptive actions to connected partners and agriculture analysis tools, including the John Deere Operations Center, Climate FieldView, SMS, SST, and other leading platforms.
