7.1Cultivated Field Control

7.1.1Introduction

CFC or Cultivated Field Control is a GS20 application aimed at providing an accurate record of crop quantities and tolerance in accordance with European Union CAP subsidies. A user can collect and select a polygon, and calculate the area with an error estimate corresponding to a user-defined tolerance. Additional functionality also allows the user to subtract areas within the external area, and save the subsequent data to a text log file that can be exported to a personal computer.

CFC is an additional application that will require a keycode file. To purchase the application and receive a keycode, please contact your local Leica representative.

7.1.2Setup

With the possibility to use a mask file, the application is open to a variety of output into different ASCII file interfaces. The mask file *.MAS is a simple ASCII text file to be opened with any text editor on a PC.

The @LEICA CFC MASK@ is the identifier for any mask file.

The @@@ is the identifier for the end of the mask file.

The lines between the both identifiers are restricted to an amount of 15, each line with 80 Characters maximum.

The @00@ until @99@ are placeholders for the numerical values or code/ attribute info. This gives full and easy flexibility to create different output masks for any ASCII type.

A sample Leica.mas file (right) is provided and can be edited to the needs of the user.
