01 · Your map, your plans

My Layers

Bring your own layers.

Upload your grazing grids, paddock plans and property boundaries onto your eShepherd map, and switch them on and off like any other layer.

  • GeoJSON, KML and KMZ, up to 10MB
  • Your plans sit beside your fences, never mixed in
  • Reference only, so a layer never changes containment

02 · The whole mob, up to date.

NBmesh™

When one neckband talks, the whole mob hears.

Neckbands pass virtual paddock updates to each other locally, so one that missed the tower still catches up. The whole mob stays current, even when the network drops.

03 · Draw it once. Runs while you sleep.

Schedule your moves

Build a rotation once.

Chain virtual paddock moves with set durations, then schedule the plan against any mob from a start time.

  • Reuse the same plan for any mob
  • Drag to reorder, or adjust it any time
  • Edits never change moves already queued
