A good field overview makes complex information easy to understand. In Agdir, color codes and status markers show where everything is under control (green), where attention is needed (yellow), and where immediate action is required (red). This makes it possible to prioritize correctly, even in a busy season when overview is easily lost.

Status indicators in Agdir – meaning behind the colors‍

Color coding in Agdir is based on a combination of weather data, satellite signals, sensor monitoring, and planned tasks. The algorithm evaluates both current status and future risks to provide the most action-oriented information.

‍

The color-coding system

Green status – everything under control

Meaning: Field has optimal status and no immediate needs.
Criteria:

• Weather windows not critical in the next 2–3 days
• Satellite shows normal biomass
• Sensors (if installed) within normal values
• No overdue tasks

‍

Yellow status – attention needed

Meaning: Field is approaching thresholds or has moderate deviations.
Criteria:

• Weather windows become critical within 1–2 days
• Satellite shows moderate stress or irregularity
• Sensors show deviations but not critical values
• Tasks soon due or of low priority

‍

Red status – action needed now

Meaning: Field has critical conditions requiring immediate attention.
Criteria:

• Weather windows closing within 6–12 hours
• Satellite shows clear stress signals
• Sensors show critical values (drought, frost, etc.)
• High-priority tasks overdue or critical deadlines approaching

Specialized status indicators

Weather-based indicators

• Wind icon: Shows spray windows (green/yellow/red based on wind strength)
• Rain icon: Indicates rainfall forecast and impact on planned operations
• Thermometer: Shows temperature extremes affecting decisions

‍

Task indicators

• Clock: Task deadlines (green = plenty of time, red = overdue)
• Exclamation mark: High-priority tasks requiring quick action
• Check mark: Completed tasks awaiting closure

‍

Sensor indicators

• Drop icon: Soil moisture status from sensor measurements
• Thermometer: Temperature warnings from crop sensors
• Alert icon: General sensor alarms

‍

Practical use of the status system

Morning check (2–3 minutes)‍

Open the field overview and scan for red and yellow fields. This gives an instant priority list for the day.

Dynamic reprioritization‍

As weather conditions change, the status updates automatically. Green fields may turn yellow/red, and vice versa.

Team communication‍

Shared understanding: “We handle the red fields first, then the yellow ones if time allows” is easier than long explanations.

‍

‍

Adapting status thresholds

• Soil-type adjustments: Sandy soil reaches red status with smaller moisture deviations than clay soil.
• Crop-specific thresholds: High-value crops turn red at the same stress signals that would only give yellow for less critical crops.
• Seasonal adjustments: Critical growth phases trigger red status at the same deviations compared to less sensitive periods.
• User preferences: Each user can adjust how “sensitive” the system should be to deviations.

‍

‍

Combined status from multiple data sources

• Example: Red status from weather combinations
  Field gets red status when: short spray windows (6 hours left) + satellite shows disease pressure + high humidity promotes disease.
• Example: Yellow status despite some red signals
  Soil moisture sensor shows low value (red), but weather forecast predicts rain tomorrow (green) = overall yellow status.

‍

‍

Status history and learning effect‍

Agdir stores status history per field. Over time, patterns appear: which fields often turn red, and why. This supports learning for better prevention.

‍

‍

Alerts and reminders

• Push notifications: Critical (red) status triggers automatic alerts
• Email alerts: Daily summary of yellow and red fields
• Dashboard alerts: Visible on the main screen upon login

‍

Summary ‍

Status indicators and color coding simplify complex decisions into clear priorities. When the field overview shows red, yellow, and green based on real data, focus sharpens, and timing improves.
Set up status indicators tailored to your crops and soil types, and experience how much easier prioritization becomes with colors that make sense.
