Staphyt Agrosciences Adds Iteris ClearAg Content for Enhanced Crop Research
ClearAg Weather Data Now Available to Staphyt Field Researchers Across Europe
Iteris, Inc. (NASDAQ: ITI), the global leader in applied informatics for transportation and agriculture, and Staphyt Agrosciences, a leading contract research organization (CRO) in the field of agroscience, have announced the addition of Iteris ClearAg® smart content to Staphyts agricultural research operations.
Staphyt field researchers and crop scientists will now be able to access hyperlocal current, forecast and historical weather data via the ClearAg WeatherPlot® mobile application across 15 European countries, as well as Australia, New Zealand, Russia and Morocco.
"Staphyt Agrosciences wants to provide our customers with the best local data available to further improve our agronomic expertise," said Arthur Boisleux, innovation manager at Staphyt. "Iteris ClearAg weather modeling technology enables our crop scientists across Europe to help with crop trial data collection, as well as reducing the need for in-field weather stations in favor of more accurate, hyperlocal digital agriculture models."
"We are excited to provide a valuable subset of ClearAgs environmental and atmospheric content to Staphyt agricultural researchers in Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Russia and Morocco," said Jim Chambers, senior vice president and general manager, Agriculture and Weather Analytics at Iteris. "By providing ClearAgs smart content via WeatherPlot, Staphyt crop scientists can now leverage current, forecast and historical weather data for the effective management and interpretation of field research trials."
The ClearAg WeatherPlot mobile app is a location-specific, agriculturally focused weather and soil decision support tool for agronomists, researchers and crop science professionals who manage product performance inquiries.

How to overcome GNSS limitations with RTK correction services
Although GNSS offers ubiquitous coverage worldwide, its accuracy can be hindered in some situations - signals can be attenuated by heavy vegetation, for example, or obstructed by tall buildings in dense urban canyons. This results in signals being received indirectly or via the multipath effect, leading to inaccuracy, or even blocked entirely. Unimpeded GNSS positioning in all real world scenarios is therefore unrealistic - creating a need for supporting technologies, such as real time kinematic (RTK) positioning and dead reckoning, to enable centimeter-accuracy for newer mass-market IoT devices.
