Viewing and transferring data out of the cab is not always simple. With Panorama® you can easily view maps, input summaries, and agronomic data from a Gen 3 20|20. See all your 20|20 data on your phone, computer, or platform of your choice. Each step of the crop cycle must have accurate data to guide future decisions. Whether you’re stopping in the field to make a fix, evaluating your approach for the next pass, or choosing your purchases for next season, you need accurate data. The Gen 3 20|20 not only controls your equipment but is the hub for agronomic data and performance metrics from Precision Planting products. The best part about the 20|20 is that it isn’t just for planters. Use it to control and monitor your sprayer, combine, seeder, and fertilizer applicator, then view results in the Panorama platform. By connecting to Wi-Fi, the Gen 3 20|20 will automatically push data to Panorama so you can access it on the app when you’re ready to review.
