AFOPro Spatial

AFOPro Spatial is an extension created for ArcView 3.x. Before using the Tool the user must prepare some spatial data in ArcView.

• Add existing SSURGO Soils Theme• Digitize/Add Planned Land Units (Fields) shapefile• Digitize/Add resource shapefiles (streams, ponds, wells, etc.).

Part 1:Spatial Data PreparationWith ArcView

Getting Started

2. Add appropriate image themes

3. Zoom to the farm

4. From View Menu select Properties. Set Map and Distance Units.
