About ZedX

ZedX, Inc., founded in May, 1987, has been a leader in the development of information technology (IT) products and services for the agricultural and environmental industries. By using customer, on-demand articulation models, ZedX has been on a research and development path that is practical, rich in content, and varied in subject.

ZedX, Inc. services span a variety of markets enabling us to develop innovative products and solutions for our customers.

ZedX is recognized as a leading IT solution provider for the precision agriculture industry and became one of the leading developers of integrated information technology for decision making for the agricultural, environmental, and energy sectors. ZedX was the first company to develop high resolution, raster weather databases that are compatible with Geographic Information System (GIS) programs.

Building tomorrow's technologies for today's solutions

• Design, develop, and support decision-support IT tools for the Agricultural Industry across the "food chain."
  • The AgFleet® family (AFTrace, Application Order Tracker, Irrigation Scheduler) of in-season tactical web-based IT services for the grower and supplier segment of the Agricultural sector.
  • Provide weather-based decision-support services for managing complex early-warning pest management forecast and monitoring systems. This includes our NAPPFAST and PIPE systems.
• Design, assemble, integrate, and support weather data systems.
  • Develop and distribute climatological, historical, and custom weather forecast data sets at spatial resolutions of one (1) km and ten (10) km and temporal resolutions as short as one (1) hour to clients worldwide. The high resolution, weather databases serve as input into a wide range of government, university, and industrial models.
• Design modeling and monitoring solutions for complex environmental systems.
  • Develop web-based tools to shape sustainable decision making for the agricultural industry.
  • Develop web-based tools to take advantage of new "role-based" architecture to create an online clearing house of scientific information about pollen movement and deposition and its impact on allergies. This ZedX developed system provides online entry and retrieval of information coupled with state-of-the-art aerobiological models. This project is an international collaboration of plant physiologists, biologists, meteorologists, and medical personnel.
  • ZedX is joining a consortium of universities and the Korean Meteorological Agency to develop a plan for enhancing the existing agmeteorological services in Korea. The goal is to take advantage of information technology (IT) tools developed by ZedX, such as the ipmPIPE, and then move towards integrating new technologies, such as ZedX's new "role-based" architecture, in order to generate the desired scales of data and decision support programs.
  • ZedX is participating in an international scientific collaboration to build a cyber infrastructure called the "Global Phytophthora Network" (GPN). The GPN is designed to genetically catalog, field monitor, and manage Phytophthora, which is one of the most destructive groups of plant pathogens in the world. Early detection and accurate genetic identification will significantly increase the probability of preventing the outbreak and spread of new and reemerging Phytophthora diseases.
• Integrate large-scale environmental data systems, with in-field sensing and networking technology for next generation automated decision making.
• Partner with centers of excellence to develop advanced systems and technology to meet future customer needs.
