N-SIGHT
N-SIGHT is a decision-support web application developed at University of Nebraska-Lincoln to advance in-season nitrogen management.
What Is N-SIGHT?
A decision-support web application developed at UNL to advance in-season nitrogen management. It leverages UAV and satellite imagery together with field-level treatment data to provide real-time insights into nitrogen use efficiency. Built on the Sufficiency Index (SI) framework, N-SIGHT helps researchers, agronomists, and farmers evaluate nitrogen treatments dynamically during the growing season, making decisions more precise, profitable, and sustainable.
What Can N-SIGHT Help You With?
- Visualizing nitrogen treatments and applications across plots and fields as interactive maps, plots, and tables
- Assessing nitrogen sufficiency using the Sufficiency Index (SI)
- Tracking treatment outcomes across multiple dates during the growing season
- Comparing different application strategies (standard vs. sensor-based fertigation)
- Identifying nitrogen deficiencies early and adjusting management practices to optimize yield
How to Use N-SIGHT
- Scan the QR Code below or visit this link: https://go.unl.edu/n-sight
- Explore Field Data
Select from available fields and dates to view Field Maps, Nitrogen Treatment Maps, SI Maps, Yield Maps, and related plots. - Interpret Results
- Green SI (≥ 0.95): crop is likely sufficient in nitrogen
- Yellow/Red SI (< 0.95): potential nitrogen deficiency
Interactive graphs and tables help track nitrogen applications, sufficiency, and yield over time.
Making Confident Decisions with N-SIGHT
N-SIGHT bridges the gap between static pre-season nitrogen plans and dynamic, in-season adjustments. By transforming raw imagery and treatment data into clear visuals, it enables data-driven nitrogen management that improves efficiency, reduces environmental impact, and supports more profitable outcomes.
