Updates to the SFI 2024 template
Some options and payment rates were published incorrectly. These have now been updated, thank you to all our eagle-eyed users who notified us of the errors.
- WBD1 and WBD2 have now been updated to be the correct way around – anything that was assigned to “WBD1: Manage ditches (both sides)” will be updated to “WBD2: Manage ditches (both sides)” and anything assigned to “WBD2: Manage ponds” will be updated to “WBD1: Manage ponds”
- Corrected incorrect payment rates: AHW9, HEF8, OFC5, OFM6
Payment rates will be recalculated automatically on plans already using these codes.

- Uses a template modelled on our Blank template to provide a generalised tool for capturing points of interest as you survey an area
- Add a description to each feature to take notes digitally
- Works offline with data synced to the website when you have an internet connection, so your features and notes are there when you get back to your desk. Conveniently allowing you to centralise information in Land App
- Copy points and lines from an existing plan into a General Data Collection template using the website, and you will then be able to access that information on Land App Mobile. Click here for detailed guidance on how to do this.
