Abstract
A method for controlling a plurality of mobile agricultural devices that includes establishing electronic communication with a plurality of transceivers mounted to the mobile agricultural devices. The method also includes building a three-dimensional model including a virtual representation of each of the mobile agricultural devices and displaying the three-dimensional model at a user interface having a display. The method further includes receiving location data regarding the mobile agricultural devices via the transceivers and adjusting at least one of the virtual representations of the mobile agricultural devices within the model to reflect the location data. The method still further includes receiving, via the user interface, a user input comprising a command relating to operation of a first one of the mobile agricultural devices and transmitting the user input command to one of the transceivers, which is mounted to the first mobile agricultural device, so as to implement a change in operation of the first mobile agricultural device.
