Tractor GPS turns your iPhone or iPad into a simple field guidance tool for farmers. Create AB lines, follow parallel passes, measure fields, track coverage, and reduce unnecessary overlap — without expensive dedicated GPS hardware. Works with your device’s GPS and supports offline field use, so you can keep working even when connectivity is limited. We’re launching Tractor GPS to help more farmers bring practical GPS guidance to the tractor they already own.

Could you build this?
Partial A basic UI calculating AB navigation lines is buildable, but standard mobile GPS chips have meters of drift that make real tractor guidance unusable without sensor fusion, RTK-GPS integration, and specialized GIS algorithms.
What it would actually take: Building a viable tractor navigation tool requires integrating RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) positioning or external GNSS receivers over Bluetooth/NMEA to achieve sub-inch/sub-foot accuracy. The software pipeline involves computational geometry (spatial indexing with R-trees, polygon clipping for coverage tracking, and Dubins path calculations for tractor turning radius) implemented in Swift/C++ using Mapbox or custom Metal rendering.
