The AGRIS 18.1.0 release has added:

AGS-3550:  Maps > Refreshing AgroGuide Tree and Maps - Reduce time to refresh tree and maps and provide user the ability to manually refresh client information

TABLE OF CONTENTS:

Purpose and Summary

Need to :

• Improve ability to make more changes to maps in less time?

• Reduce time spent waiting for the "Refreshing AgroGuide Maps" process to complete?

AgroGuide land maintenance and mapping has been enhanced to improve client tree and map refresh time.  This improvement is called "Targeted Refresh". 

In previous versions, the entire client tree and map view refreshed after every land management and mapping action.  With 18.1.0, only the recently maintained farm, field, or crop zone refreshes in the client tree and map. 

Targeted Refresh Actions

By default, Targeted Refresh is turned on. 

Targeted Refresh applies to these maintenance actions:

• Add Farm, Field, or Crop Zone (using tree land management buttons) 

• Mapping - Field, Crop Zone, and Attachment actions

• Edit Farm, Field, or Crop Zone properties (using tree land management buttons) ¹

1. Exception: Changing crop color requires user to click Refresh Client button to update crop color on map

Complete Refresh Actions

In some instances, maintenance actions require a complete client tree and map refresh.  Actions requiring a complete refresh include:

• Selecting new client

• Land Transfer

• Purge Field History

• Copy Crop Zones

• Setup - Display Reported or GIS area in tree

• Farm, Field, or Crop Zone delete

New AgroGuide Refresh Client button

Also new to AgroGuide is a "Refresh Client" button positioned above the client tree and to the right of the crop year input fields.  The Refresh Client button allows the user to refresh, on demand, the entire client tree and map.  The button also indicates when land entities or maps are added or edited by turning green.  The button will remain green until the next complete client tree and map refresh.
