RMS Mapper Introduction
The Mid-Tech RMS Mapper mapping program for the Legacy 6000 allows the mapping of road-
ways, railroads, power-lines, weed types, and infestations, as well as any other features important
to the roadside spraying task. Features can be mapped as points, lines, or polygons. With a sub-
meter GPS receiver, area determination of a mapped polygon is possible to within one-tenth of an
acre. Data, collected with RMS Mapper, is stored as a map and can be viewed as a background
map in the RMS Application Rate Management (ARM) software. Use RMS Mapper as a pre-spray
campaign mapping tool, where the route, as well as spray on and spray off locations, can be
mapped a few days prior to the spray truck heading out. Load this map into the RMS ARM soft-
ware and view it in the background. The spray vehicle operator can view this route or “spray cam-
paign” map and see the areas along the route that need to be sprayed. Many other important
features can be mapped, such as route hazards and water crossings. When using the RMS ARM
software, it can automatically notify the operator of impending spray on and spray off locations as
well as any features marked as hazards created with RMS Mapper software.
