Rantizo Connects AcreConnect Software with John Deere

IOWA CITY, IA  – Rantizo, the largest drone spraying network in the country, announces its proprietary AcreConnect productivity software is now connected with the John Deere Operations Center through the John Deere API services. This connection allows Rantizo to significantly enhance the value of AcreConnect by enabling spray drone operators to easily share application maps with customers on Operations Center.

“AcreConnect is the only provider of as applied and as covered maps for both DJI and XAG spray drones, so we are excited to bring this valuable data to growers and retailers through John Deere Operations Center,” said Mariah Scott, CEO. “We’re building a software ecosystem that makes it easier for our operators to deliver top-notch service to their customers.”

Using AcreConnect with Operations Center allows operators to share ‘As Covered’ and ‘As Applied’ Maps directly with customers. This ensures that spray records are included with other application information and field data, giving growers and retailers a more comprehensive view of their operations. This holistic approach to data management facilitates better decision-making, leading to improved operational efficiency and productivity.

“Connecting AcreConnect to the John Deere Operations Center truly supports our promise to deliver better service,” said Jeff Holman, Chief Product Technology Officer (CPTO). “Both independent operators and those at retail locations, stand to gain significant value from their ability to share application data directly to a grower’s account.”
