About this app

The Ditch Assist User Manual is now available as an Android App - download it onto your tablet from here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.andromo.dev428107.app477261 so you always have it with you when operating Ditch Assist!

Ditch Assist is the first truly affordable alternative to lasers for RTK land leveling and surface drainage. Designed for use with agricultural earth moving equipment such as scrapers, land levelers, Pulldozers, ditchers, rotary ditchers, and more.

CREATE DRAINS OR PLANES WITH SINGLE OR MULTI-SLOPES
Survey a proposed drainage route, or drive a line from one end of the field to the other. Then, use Slope-IQ™ to design a single or multi-slope ditch or plane based on your survey. Our ‘best-fit’ multi-grade slopes can reduce earth-moving by 60% vs traditional laser!

WIRELESS COMMUNICATION
Ditch Assist™ is the only grade control system to use Wi-Fi communication between the cab and the implement. This makes the system simple to install, use, and easily moved between different pieces of equipment.

COMPATIBLE WITH EXISTING EQUIPMENT
Ditch Assist™ works with every brand of GPS, every implement that’s raised and lowered hydraulically, and any tractor – regardless of it’s age. Don’t be tied to one brand!

ANDROID BASED USER INTERFACE
Ditch Assist’s user interface is a free Android app that runs on Android tablets. This makes Ditch Assist the most affordable and easily updatable grade control system available.

NOW WITH SLOPE IQ™
With Slope-IQ™ you can be confident you aren’t moving any more dirt than you need to be. Simply drive along the proposed drainage route (or across a field you’d like to land level) in survey mode. Then, specify the minimum slope you’d like to maintain for your ditch or plane. Ditch Assist will do the rest!

LOOKING FOR AN AFFORDABLE REPLACEMENT TO LASER FOR LAND LEVELING?
Slope-IQ also works for single or variable slope land-forming on smaller fields, or areas of a field that are fairly uniform. Drive in a straight line down the center of the field or area to be land-formed in survey mode, and design the run as normal. When you start working on either side of your original survey, Ditch Assist will fetch the target height from the nearest point on the original route, effectively ‘stretching’ the design and allowing you to make multiple passes using one original survey. On larger fields, you can repeat this process, effectively dividing the field into smaller areas of similar uniformity.

***Please note that in order to use this App you must purchase the Ditch Assist hardware. It is not possible to use any of the app functions (apart from the simulator) without the Ditch Assist Control Module. Please visit ditchassist.com for more information***
