Reference Layer Type Definitions & Cleanup #135

Open knelson-farmbeltnorth opened 6 months ago

knelson-farmbeltnorth commented 6 months ago

We currently have these defined Reference Layer types:

OTHER BACKGROUND_IMAGE COMMON_LAND_UNIT ELEVATION_MAP MANAGEMENT_ZONE OBSTACLES PROFIT_MAP SOIL_TYPE_MAP VARIETY_LOCATOR

I'm proposing the following renaming and definitions.

"OBSTACLES" is removed to eliminate any confusion whether these are to be passed as ReferenceLayers or in Catalog.FieldBoundaries[n].Obstacles.

OTHER: A type of Reference Layer not otherwise included in this list IMAGERY: Specific imagery to be used by the data consumer REFERENCE_BOUNDARIES (see #134) ELEVATION: Predefined elevation contours to be used by the data consumer MANAGEMENT_ZONE: Features used or to be used in preparing agronomic recommendations. PROFIT: Pre-calculated farm profit data to be used by the data consumer SOIL_TYPE: Features grouping ground sharing common soil taxonomic classification VARIETY_LOCATOR: Features grouping planted varieties for use in spatial identification during harvest

Changes agreed in the 13 December 2023 meeting with the exception that we need to maintain the Obstacles layer type for obstacles outside of the field. We will document how this should be used vs. the obstacles on the Field Boundaries.
