Landscaper replaces FieldSurface and FieldSplitter

For several years, two separate applications covered closely related needs in the field: FieldSurface-Master, for redrawing and measuring a surface from a photo, and FieldSplitter-Master, for splitting an agricultural plot into two crops. Both tools are now replaced by a single application: Landscaper.

Why this change

FieldSurface-Master and FieldSplitter-Master started from a photo or a rough survey, which meant manually recalibrating the scale and accepting a margin of error. Each addressed a single need, with no link between them: you couldn't measure a surface and then move on to a split or a row layout on the same plot.

Landscaper takes a different approach: instead of reconstructing an approximate outline, it fetches the official outline of the cadastral parcel directly from the IGN API. No more framing a photo, no more recalibrating a scale by hand: distances and surfaces are exact from the start, in real meters.

What FieldSurface and FieldSplitter did separately, Landscaper does together

Landscaper takes over the use cases of both former applications and adds a third workshop, all on a single reliable parcel outline:

• Split by surface (replaces FieldSplitter-Master) — select an edge of the parcel, specify the target surface, and Landscaper instantly computes the position of the new boundary markers to create an exact sub-parcel. Useful before a sale, a division, or to organize two crops on the same plot.

• Layout (replaces FieldSurface-Master) — draw construction lines from existing edges, intersect them, and compose a free shape to sketch a development project (building, driveway, technical area...) directly on the real outline of the land, with no photo and no approximate redrawing.

• Trellising / Planting (new) — for vineyards, orchards, or any planting in regular rows: define the spacing between rows and between plants, the edge margins, and get the number of rows, plants, trellis posts, and required wire length in one click.

Another fundamental difference: these three workshops are no longer siloed. They rely on the same georeferenced outline, which means you can, for example, split a parcel by surface and then directly compute a vineyard layout on it, without re-entering any data.

Merging several cadastral references

Landscaper can also merge several adjacent cadastral references into a single outline, to work on a set of parcels as if it were a single one — a feature neither of the two former applications offered.

What's next?

Links and shortcuts to FieldSurface-Master and FieldSplitter-Master now point to Landscaper. If you used either one, there's no data to migrate: just enter your cadastral reference to find, and go beyond, what you used to do.
