About

Pinpoint (9d75e4)

Features
Read full description

Pinpoint is a field scouting app built for cranberry farm crews. It replaces paper tally sheets and generic ag apps with a map-first tool designed around how scouts actually work. SCOUT BY BED Tap any bed on your farm's satellite map to start recording. Pinpoint knows your farm's layout — every bed, every section — so observations are automatically tied to the right location. SWEEP NET COUNTS Log pest counts from sweep net samples with species-specific forms. Pinpoint tracks thresholds for cranberry fruitworm, sparganothis, blackheaded fireworm, and other key pests so you know when action is needed. DISEASE & CONDITION TRACKING Flag fruit rot, fairy ring, false blossom, and other diseases with photos and severity ratings. Record weed pressure, water levels, and general crop conditions bed by bed. WORKS OFFLINE Cranberry bogs don't have great cell coverage. Pinpoint stores everything locally on your device and syncs automatically when you're back in range. No data lost, no interruptions. GPS TRACKING See your position on the farm map in real time. Pinpoint tracks your route during scouting sessions so managers can see which beds were covered. PHOTO DOCUMENTATION Capture photos of pests, diseases, and crop conditions directly from the app. Photos are tagged to the bed and observation automatically. REPORTS & EXPORT View session summaries and export scouting data as CSV for crop consultants, managers, and compliance records. BUILT FOR CRANBERRY Pinpoint isn't a generic farm app. The pest lists, disease references, growth stages, and scouting protocols are specific to cranberry production. Your crew spends less time searching and more time scouting. TEAM READY Multiple scouts can work the same farm simultaneously. Managers see all sessions, observations, and coverage from the admin dashboard.
