ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for collecting and analyzing soil chemistry information from a tract of land is described. An information management system receives reference signals from a global positioning system from which soil sample collection coordinate location information may be calculated and utilized to generate a soil sampling plan for the tract of land. The information management system guides the collection of soil samples according to the soil sampling plan and records geo-referenced soil sample collection information which may be merged with the results of laboratory analysis performed on the soil samples to generate accurate geo-referenced soil chemistry information.
