Features

Refreshed look

With this update, Mirus delivers a modernized user interface designed for clarity and speed. Expect a cleaner layout and intuitive navigation.

Now handles shape files

Added support for shapefile import so you can bring in field boundaries, plots, or GPS layouts directly into Mirus. This means you can map your trials ahead of harvest, align data collection with your actual field geometry, and improve spatial accuracy across your research. No more manual map conversion—just import, review, and get started.

Cloud capability

Mirus’s new cloud-enabled advancements allow you to sync data and configurations across devices, back up your harvest and plot records automatically, and access your data from remote locations. Whether you're in the office or in the field, you can maintain continuity of your data, collaborate across teams more easily, and ensure your research data remains secure and accessible.

Access data in near real-time for faster decision-making between combine operators, research managers, and statisticians. Data can also be monitored while the combine is collecting data in the field.

The security and privacy of our customers' data are our top priority. Cloud data remains protected and secure.

User tracking

Stay in control of team operations with enhanced user-tracking features that log who collected what data, when and where. Each user is assigned user credentials, great for audit trails, research-grade documentation, and accountability in large or multi-operator field trials. This helps maintain high data integrity and enables deeper review of operational workflows.
