TIP: Farm Site

Overlaying a Soil Map onto an Averaged Yield Map

1. Load the Soil Type Layer.
2. Rubberband the field, right click and select Average Polygons.
3. Choose the yield layer that you are averaging the points by clicking on the Layers button.
4. The field will appear with the areas colored according to the soil type areas. Select the Show Legend button. You may also right click to add a label for the average values.
5. To see the soil types, move the soil type layer to the top.
6. Again, click on the Show Legend button. You will now also see the legend for the soil types.
   Note: You will need to have the backgrounds as "transparent" on the soil type layer. This allows the colors for the average polygons to be seen through the soil type layer.
