SST Software and Iteris partnership to offer weather insights

A new partnership between SST Software and Iteris, Inc. will offer SST users real-time weather insights through Iteris' ClearAg platform. Weather is one of the largest external pivot factors in precision agriculture. As a result, knowledge of historical and impending weather impacts is critical. ClearAg content will provide SST users with relevant agronomic weather insights for better decision-making. ClearAg content includes crop canopy and field-level weather insights, available anywhere globally.

"The integration of Iteris' ClearAg Platform content into the SST system will provide our customers with the precision weather-based information needed to minimize risks and maximize productivity," said Beth Clarke, director of product management.

SST Software will offer ClearAg agronomic content to their customers in the fall 2016. The fall transition will be the initial step toward a complete offering of Iteris' ClearAg crop health models to SST users.
