Release 1.2.0
Insights
Area at Risk Trend
Insights now include an Area at Risk Trend indicator with a detail drawer showing the top affected Level 2 regions. This helps users quickly understand how affected crop area is changing and where the largest areas at risk are concentrated.
The trend indicator supports faster prioritization from the insight list by showing whether the affected area is increasing, decreasing, or stable. The supporting drawer gives users a focused regional breakdown without requiring them to leave the insight workflow.
Extended Insight Forecast Window
Insight detector forecasts for drought, wind, flood, and heatwave have been extended from 3 days to 7 days, providing a longer planning window for risk monitoring and response.
This gives users more time to assess upcoming agricultural risk and coordinate potential response actions before forecasted events occur.
Improved Insight Map Layers and Legends
Insight map layers and legends have been refined with updated labels, color mapping, and range configuration. Crop impact map layers also now reflect region-based data access where applicable.
These updates improve consistency between Insights and Visual Explorer and help users understand whether crop impact data is available, available only after drilling down, or restricted for the selected region.
Projects
Region-Aware Project Impact Data
Project crop impact displays now better account for region-based data restrictions. When restricted data is unavailable, the application avoids showing misleading zero-impact messaging.
This helps users distinguish between a region that is not affected and a region where crop impact data is unavailable due to access restrictions. Existing project workflows remain available while restricted crop impact values are handled more clearly.
Weather Intelligence
Ensemble Weather Probability Support
Agriculture Intelligence now includes data model support for ensemble weather forecasts and calculated weather probabilities.
This supports future probabilistic weather intelligence by storing ensemble forecast inputs and calculating the likelihood of weather outcomes that can be used by downstream crop risk and insight workflows.
Accessibility and Usability
Accessibility Improvements
This release includes accessibility improvements for keyboard focus, pin actions, insight links, project controls, and map regions across Agriculture Intelligence, Visual Explorer, Projects, and Region Assignment.
Updates include improved visible focus behavior, better keyboard access for pinned Insight and Project actions, improved markup for insight links in project creation, and accessible names or roles for map containers.
Visual Explorer Data Presentation Refinements
Visual Explorer includes several data presentation refinements in the redesigned experience.
Updates include corrected download file names, improved crop name casing in map tooltips, clearer Sub-Regions tab titles, and production totals in historical data tables. These refinements improve consistency between on-screen data and downloaded outputs.
Data and Configuration
Additional Crop and Deployment Configuration
Crop configuration has been expanded and normalized to support additional crop monitoring scenarios, including crops with multi-word names. Crop labels now use display-friendly names rather than underscore-based internal codes.
The release also includes configuration updates for onboarding and environment setup, including map initialization, crop setup, and deployment-specific configuration changes.
Release 1.1.2
General
Clarified Range Filter Behavior
Range filters across the application have been updated to explicitly state “from … to (but not including)” to clarify that the upper bound is exclusive. Previously, selecting a date such as September 25 would return data through September 24 without clearly indicating this behavior. This change improves transparency and ensures users clearly understand how date and value ranges are applied throughout the system.
Default Sorting by Event Start Date
The default sorting on the landing page has been updated to sort insights by event start date. This ensures that the most urgent or imminent events appear at the top of the list, improving prioritization and helping users focus on time-sensitive insights.
Dynamic Confidence Level Display
Confidence levels are no longer hard-coded and now reflect model outputs. Insights display a confidence level of High, Medium, or Low based on the underlying data science models. This enhancement improves transparency and aligns the UI with actual predictive confidence.
Streamlined Release Documentation Strategy
Documentation is now aligned to reflect the most current product functionality, with release notes serving as a concise summary of changes. This approach ensures that users always access up-to-date guidance in the core documentation, while release notes highlight what has changed in each version.
Agriculture Intelligence Dashboard
Replacement of Region Column with “Hectares at Risk”
The Region column has been replaced with a “Hectares at Risk” column, displaying the total affected area for each insight. This metric is sortable and filterable, enabling users to quickly identify events with the largest potential impact. Selecting the hectares value opens a detailed view showing a Level 2 regional breakdown without exposing sensitive production data.
Enhanced Sparkline Tooltip Content
Tooltip content on Sparkline charts has been refined to present clearer and more relevant contextual information. This update improves readability and ensures users can quickly interpret key data points directly from the dashboard view.
Insights
Replace Smart Filter for Regions with a Dynamic List of Values (LOV)
All region filters on insights lists and details have now been replaced with a pop-up searchable list of regions. Previously, the App used a smart filter to allow users to search and drill down into particular administrative regions. This component performs search locally, requiring all regions to be downloaded with the page. Given that our customers typically have more than 10,000 regions, this solution will lead to excessive bandwidth consumption and performance degradation. The new list component avoids these problems, allowing users to search and drill down into regions in a more scalable and performant way.
Flexible Y-Axis Scaling for Line Charts
Line charts now dynamically scale the Y-axis based on the actual data range while always including zero. Previously, charts often extended to 100% regardless of actual values, making low-percentage variations difficult to interpret. The new scaling approach improves visibility of small changes and makes more effective use of available chart space.
Improved Past and Forecast Visualization on Line Charts
Line charts no longer rely on a hard-coded “today” divider. Instead, forecasted periods are indicated using background shading, while a single continuous line represents the data series. This removes visual clutter, eliminates tooltip overlap issues caused by dual-series rendering, and ensures the chart fully utilizes available space regardless of when it is viewed.
Improved Hover Indicators on Line Charts
Interactive markers have been added to line charts to make hoverable data points more discoverable. This visual cue makes it easier for users to access additional information through tooltips and enhances overall usability.
Introduction of Insight Lifecycle Statuses
Insight statuses have been expanded from a simple Active/Inactive model to a defined lifecycle that includes Forecasted, Ongoing, Ended, Archived, and Forecasted (Unrealized). Status transitions are handled automatically by the system based on event progression, while archiving remains user-controlled. Archived insights are hidden from default views but remain accessible if needed. This update provides clearer visibility into event progression and system behavior.
Project
Smart Filter Optimizations for Regions
The smart search region filters on projects has been optimized and contextualized to avoid preloading all potential regions. This has been done proactively in anticipation of the need to manage large numbers of administrative regions.
Removal of Crop Impact Badge
The previously displayed “High” crop impact badge has been removed. The badge was hard-coded and did not reflect a defined impact calculation. It has been temporarily removed until a robust and defensible impact logic model is implemented.
Visual Explorer
Replace Smart Filter for Regions with a Dynamic List of Values (LOV)
All region filters on visual explorer pages have now been replaced with a pop-up searchable list of regions. Previously, the App used a smart filter to allow users to search and drill down into particular administrative regions. This component performs search locally, requiring all regions to be downloaded with the page. Given that our customers typically have more than 10,000 regions, this solution will lead to excessive bandwidth consumption and performance degradation.
