Hexagon’s approach and value to the farms ecosystem

Hexagon goes beyond smart farming with solutions that make it possible to leverage data across every phase of a farm’s lifecycle, from planting and cultivation to harvest, from OEM machine-control solutions to supporting the development of fully autonomous equipment and workflows. This unique approach includes:

Capturing, connecting and processing sensor data — Precise positioning data, location intelligence and satellite imaging help farmers make more informed decisions, while edge computing provides the ability to perform advanced analytics locally in real time.
From automation to autonomy — Hexagon’s precision farming technologies help automate repetitive tasks and accelerate the transition to fully autonomous workflows for all phases of agriculture — from planting, spraying and cultivation to harvesting and raw material transportation.
Scaling innovation at the OEM level — Hexagon delivers value to the farming ecosystem through a comprehensive OEM portfolio, with custom innovations in smart farming tailored to each partner’s needs. Our digital reality solutions enabled by our sensor, hardware and software technologies add scale and accessibility to innovation.

What's holding you back?

Declining availability of arable lands against a backdrop of increased food demand
Increased risk of drought and extreme weather events due to climate change
Rapidly dwindling pool of skilled farm labour
Inefficient farming practices increase input costs and decrease potential yield
No visibility into the status of equipment, people and workflows during operations

The value we create throughout the farms ecosystem

Digitalise and connect

Farmers make better-informed decisions with Hexagon’s solutions that digitally capture, connect and visualise the entire ecosystem — including terrain, soil, groundwater, weather, state of crops and the location and movement of equipment.

Simplify logistics

Hexagon’s farming solutions synchronise the entire process from planting to harvest. The exact position of the entire fleet is monitored and orchestrated in real time, ensuring efficiency, decreasing waste and lowering costs.

Automation to autonomous

Hexagon combines its core capabilities of assured positioning, machine controls and sensor fusion to accelerate the development of automated and autonomous solutions that will accelerate much-needed increased capacity, improved yields and lower costs.

Sustainability at scale

Leveraging data to optimise the use of resources, precision farming and synchronised logistics is the best path towards economic and environmental sustainability.
