JDOffice 1.2 Using Filters to Analyze a Field Filters give you the ability to analyze your point data by separating specified data from the field as a whole.

Possible filters: Date/Time Filename Flag Point Flag None Implement Load Number Lot Machine Operator Other Product Tillage Variety Filters color specific data within the active field point layer; therefore the filtered points are representative of the active layer’s legend. For example, if you are viewing a yield point map and select a date/time filter, the select color points on the filtered map will correspond to the bushels per acre legend for the yield point layer. This rule is modified only when the flag, point flag, variety, or load number filters are selected. With these filters, you have the option to Show only this xxx (with colors representative of the active layer), or Show all xxx in this field. When the latter option is selected, the colors will only represent the flag/variety/ load number itself. If you click the Legend button, the corresponding legend will open - this is a discreet master legend that is independent of the active layer. The flag and variety legend colors can be changed on the Legend Setup screen. Regardless of the filter selected, the unfiltered points (the remainder of the field) will turn gray. Although this color can be changed, it is recommended that you set the filter color as gray or black to provide a contrast next to the colored points.

233 Field Maps average yield statistics for only the filtered area. To do this, have the filtered map active on the screen. Select a tool and then either select a point, or draw a rectangle or polygon on the field. If you select to view a histogram, it will only be for the selected filtered data. To see the statistics for all the filtered points, draw a box around the entire field - accuracy is not important as long as all of the filtered yield sites are selected. Some filtered points, such as a flagged rock, may be very small and difficult to see. To help located them, you may want to use the Zoom In tool to enlarge the map. To see a non-filtered map while leaving the Filters window open, apply the None filter. Filtered maps cannot be saved as an individual layer of the field. Note: Due to the way that flags are used in the field, it is possible to have two or more flags in the exact spot. If this happens you will see red points when Show all flags in this field is selected. To see which flags are there, select to filter each one individually. The multi-flag color can be changed on the Maps Preferences tab (page 36). View filtered data: 1. Click Layers . 2. Check View for the point layer (it must also be highlighted). 3. Click Filters . 4. In Filter Type, select the item you want to separate from the rest of the field. 5. In Show only this XXX, select which one to view. • If you selected a Flag, Variety, or Load number filter, select Show all xxx in this field, to see color points which represent the flag/variety legend color (only used as an identifier); select Show only this xxx to see color points which represent the legend of the (highlighted) active point layer. 6. Click Apply. 7. Click Close when finished.

Using Filters to Analyze a Field<br />

Filters give you the ability to analyze your point data by separating specified<br />

viewing a yield point map and select a date/time filter, the select color points on<br />

the filtered map will correspond to the bushels per acre legend for the yield<br />
