Add, edit or delete a map benchmark on the mobile app

Use Trimble Ag Mobile to easily drop map points (also known as benchmarks) with custom names to keep track of field scouting, crop health, property issues and more. With precise coordinates automatically generated for each point, you can use your mobile device’s built-in GPS to view the distance to navigate to each point from your current location. Use these map features on any field on the mobile app, starting from the home screen’s Field tile or Farm tile.

  1. Log in to the mobile app with the same Trimble ID used to access your online account (learn more)
  2. From the mobile app’s home screen, select the preferred crop year (top left)
  3. Tap the Fields tile
  4. Tap the full-screen  icon to expand the map view
  5. Tap the compass  icon to show your current location (only use if you’re close to the field boundary)
  6. Tap the benchmarkicon
  7. Enter text to add a Name and Description
  8. Touch the screen to slide the map under the white X to position the benchmark point, and automatically update the latitude and longitude coordinates
  9. Tap the blue point  icon to select a different benchmark icon shape or colour from the list
  10. Tap the check mark  to save the benchmark point (or X to cancel) and update distance from your current location
  11. Tap the point to view the Name
  12. Tap the information  icon to edit or delete  the point
  13. Tap the check mark  to save  changes (or X to cancel)
