Cows Connections
Connecting dairy and cattle management data
Nedap offers several data connections for exchanging data relating to its dairy and cattle management solutions. Get to know the packages here and learn how they can benefit you. Each data connection described below gives you access to one or more API endpoints. If you want to dive deeper into these endpoints, please check the API reference page.
Basic Connections
This is the Basic Connection, which makes it possible to exchange individual animal data from Nedap solutions with other systems. This connection contains the API endpoints: Animals, Calendar, Groups, Attentions, Installations and Locations.
The Sire Advice connection is used to import mating advices per animal into the Nedap solutions. This connection contains the API endpoint: Sire Advice.
- Animals: Lifenumber, name, condition, number, feedgroup, location, responders, sex, supply and departure date
- Calendar: Birth, calving, custom events, dryoff, heat, keep open, insemination and pregnancy check dates
- Groups: Type and number
- Installations: Serial number, country, software version, timezone and last synchronization timestamp
- Locations: Type and number
- Attentions: Animal and group attentions
- Sire advices:Three sire advices per cow (sexed and unsexed sires possible)
Examples
Exchanging calendar data between systems so that data only needs to be entered once by the end-user, which ensures ease and reduces time and error sensitivity.
Heat and Health attentions from the Nedap COWcontrol™ system can be integrated with (external) dairy management programs and combined with additional data from that system for added value.
