US: iCropTrak puts food safety on the map

In California, harvest crews are busy bringing in crops throughout the state and truck traffic is backed up at weigh scales and processing facilities. "There is a lot of paperwork that accompanies harvest activities," explained Rob Wood of Cogent3D, Inc. "Harvest crew schedules, time sheets and weigh tags are accompanied by various pre and post harvest inspection and quality assurance documents, plus a substantial regulatory compliance requirement," he added.

To ease the paperwork burden, Cogent3D, Inc. has announced the availability of a pre-configured Food Safety module for the iCropTrak iPad and iPhone software. iCropTrak subscribers can now document Food Safety inspections at the farm field using the Primus Labs Pre-Harvest Block Inspection and other protocols. The inspection data is automatically tagged with the inspector credentials and the precise GPS coordinates for the location of the inspection. "iCropTrak disqualifies any doubt that an inspection was filled out from a shady parking lot rather than at the farm field", Mr. Wood explained. iCropTrak provides users with instant visual feedback through its map based interface and managers can track inspection activities remotely and see exactly where inspectors are working and what fields have been inspected. The Food Safety module is being offered at no charge to new subscribers who sign up for iCropTrak before September 30th, 2013.
