Methods and systems provided for generating an irrigation map. In one computer-implemented method, a user is instructed, by a computing device, to draw an irrigation boundary in a map of an agricultural field. In response, the computing device receives a first input, from the user, at the map of the agricultural field displayed to the user, where the input includes a point of the irrigation boundary. A second input is solicited from the user and, in turn, the computing device receives the second input, which defines a dimension of the irrigation boundary. The computing device then appends a shape of the irrigation boundary to the map, based on the point and the dimension, wherein the irrigation boundary is positioned based on the point indicated by the user.

Methods for generating soil maps and application prescriptions

Methods are provided for generating a prescription map for the application of crop inputs. In one method, the user draws a boundary on a map within a user interface and the system identifies relevant soil data and generates a soil map overlay and legend for changing the application prescription for various soils and soil conditions. In another method, the user instead drives a field boundary which is recorded on a planter monitor using a global positioning receiver, and the system generates a soil map and legend for changing the application prescription.
