SHP Buddy: a QGIS plugin for generating shapefiles to support remote sensing in plant breeding and agronomic experiments

SHP Buddy substantially reduces the time and increases the accuracy of shapefile generation. This results in reliable shapefiles that improve record keeping and the quality of high-throughput phenotyping data extracted. By working natively in QGIS, SHP Buddy provides an efficient solution to shapefile generation while maintaining a low learning curve.

Abstract

SHP Buddy substantially reduces the time and increases the accuracy of shapefile generation. This results in reliable shapefiles that improve record keeping and the quality of high-throughput phenotyping data extracted. By working natively in QGIS, SHP Buddy provides an efficient solution to shapefile generation while maintaining a low learning curve.
