GPS Position
Advanced GPS positioning for your irrigation equipment: accurate, reliable and built into your control panel.
With the Valley GPS Position module, you gain precise location data for center pivots and linears through WAAS‑enabled receivers.
Key Features & Capabilities
WAAS‑Enabled Receiver
Achieves GPS accuracy of ±10 feet using Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) — no external devices required.

Pivot & Linear Monitoring
Tailored for both center pivots and linear machines — position tracking, boundary recognition and zone management.
Learn MoreWhy GPS Position Matters
- Precise Input Application — Avoids waste by applying water, fertiliser or chemicals only in defined zones.
- Time & Cost Savings — Reduces the hours spent on setup, or manual alignment checks using external receivers.
- Improved Field Efficiency — With accurate position data you minimise overlap and underlaps, and maximise productive area.
- Machine Compatibility — Works with existing Valley ICON® or AutoPilot Linear control systems, making upgrades easier.
Implementation & Use Cases
Installation of GPS Position is straightforward: a WAAS-enabled GPS receiver is integrated into the control panel so that the system always knows where your machine is on the field. This then enables precision features such as boundary awareness, zone‑based application and automated skip‑zones.
Use cases in Pakistan agriculture:
- Avoiding application on non‑crop areas such as roads, canals or buildings.
- Precise alignment on irregular field shapes common in small‑holder or fragmented plots.
- Integration with VRI and variable‑rate fertiliser systems for added precision and data‑driven agronomy.
Best Practices for Adoption
• Ensure your ICON® or AutoPilot panel firmware is up to date.
• Calibrate the GPS receiver at installation, verify known baseline points.
• Train your operators to interpret GPS position data — recognising machine overshoot, field
boundaries and skip‑zones.
• Combine GPS Position with other precision tools (e.g., VRI, Valley 365®) for a full connected crop
management ecosystem.
