How do I create and manage graphs on a dashboard?

FarmRoad Data Studio allows you to easily create and manage your graphs on any dashboard.

​

Create a graph

1. Click on the Data Studio icon in the app menu.
2. Click Add graph or widget at the middle of the page.

3. Select Graph.

3. Enter a name for the graph.
4. Click Done.

​

Add data to a graph

1. Click on the Data Studio icon in the app menu.
2. Go to your dashboard.
3. Open the overflow menu on the graph you want to update.
4. Click Add Data.

5. Choose the data you want to display. You can add two types of data to a graph:
   1. Sector data: Use sector data to graph data collected at the sector level.
      
      If multiple data points exist for the same timestamp, FarmRoad Data Studio averages those values before displaying them on the graph.
      
      For example, if four sensors in the same sector record humidity at the same time, the graph will show the average humidity reading for that sector
      
   2. Individual sensor data: Use sensor data to graph readings from one or more sensors connected to your FarmRoad account.
   3. Drip and drain stations: Use data from drip irrigation stations setup on your FarmRoad account.

6. After selecting your sensors, choose the datasets you want to display. These datasets show the raw data received from the selected sensors.

7. You can also choose how the data is presented:
   
   Chart style: Select Line or Bar
   
   Display type: Select Instant or Accumulated
   1. Instant: Shows the raw measurements recorded by the selected sensors.
   2. Accumulated: Adds measurements over time. This is useful for datasets such as accumulated radiation or CO2.
