While the challenge of feeding a growing global, population with diminishing, productive agricultural lands is a key objective of sustainable living in the 21st Century, the impact of soil compaction due to increasingly robust farm vehicles/tools is going unnoticed within Canada. There is a need to develop a soil compaction software solution that enhances existing efforts of equipment manufacturers like AgriBrink and their network of agricultural technology dealers to empower farmers with compaction information relevant to their own fields. AgriBrink was founded based on an investment in soil compaction research and the subsequent development of patented technology. Their made-in-Canada "Tire Pressure Adjustment" (TPA) system allows farmers to widen their application windows, reduce compaction, protect soil structure, lower fuel consumption, limit time loss caused by excess slippage and reduce yield loss due to compaction. The Conestoga research team will review existing and similar solutions from related areas of agricultural technology, and develop prototype cloud-based solutions that will ultimately allow farmers to track soil compaction conditions on their fields, using data from modern ISOBUS equipped farm vehicles to provide the basis for analysis and visualization of the condition.

虽然养活不断增长的全球人口，而人口减少，生产性农业土地是21世纪可持续生活的关键目标，但在加拿大，由于越来越强大的农业工具/工具，土壤压实的影响在加拿大境内未被注意到。有必要开发一种土壤压实软件解决方案，以增强Agribrink等设备制造商及其农业技术经销商网络的现有努力，以使农民拥有与自己领域相关的压实信息的能力。 Agribrink是基于对土壤压实研究的投资和随后的专利技术开发而建立的。他们制造的加拿大“轮胎压力调节”（TPA）系统允许农民扩大其应用窗户，减少压实，保护土壤结构，降低燃油消耗，限制因压实过多而导致的时间损失并减少因压实而导致的产量损失。 Conestoga研究团队将审查来自农业技术相关领域的现有和类似解决方案，并开发基于云的原型解决方案，最终将使用现代ISOBUS配备的农业车辆的数据来追踪其领域的土壤压实条件，从而为该病的分析和可视化提供基础。
