Harvest season: closures on the way to the silos
Closures near silos each harvest morning.
What it does
Every morning in harvest: road closures and incidents within 5 km of each grain silo and mill in your table, with a route note by xMap AI for the truck drivers.
In one sentence: Every day at 05:30, take your table, find road closures, roadworks and other incidents, write a report with xMap AI, then send message in WhatsApp Business and email the list to you.
Why it is useful
Harvest trucks queue when roads close. Drivers know the way before they leave.
Who it is for
Agriculture & food supply. Growers, agri suppliers and food supply teams watching fields and weather and finding buyers and dealers. Every use case for agriculture & food supply

The time it saves
Every day at 05:30. Doing the same work by hand takes about 20 minutes each time; it runs about 30 times a month, so it saves about 10 hours a month (an estimate). It is easy: 6 blocks.
