About Us
Agricultural Information Systems powered by location intelligence
Actionable Insight from the Geographic Context
aWhere has its roots in agriculture and agricultural climatology working in support of food and food security. The vision behind aWhere is strongly influenced by the precepts of agriculture: the need to target the right choices (from seed to fertilizer to crop protection, markets, and labor) for each situation and location. A farmer’s greatest asset is knowledge and therefore the information in support of decisions is of profound value. Geography – location – is fundamental to each and every agricultural endeavor.
For agribusiness professionals, aWhere's combination of GIS technology, ease of use, low training needs, and sharable maps makes it an obvious choice. A map-based integration of agronomic, business performance and agricultural census data is, for example, a very interpretable set of integrated data. The mapping of agronomic and hydrological data over existing crop and livestock producing regions provides a powerful foundation for researchers, analysts, production planners, and sales and marketing professionals to use in allocating resources and measuring performance.
