A sensor network for measuring and processing agricultural sensor measurements having multi-depth sensors, field monitors, and/or field data collection systems. The multi-depth sensor having a GPS; sets of physical sensors located at different depths; a processing structure sampling measurements from the physical sensors; and storing the measurements. The field monitor for use with a mobile platform having: a housing; a camera; a LiDAR sensor; a processing structure capturing point data and image data; generating above-ground field data; and determining crop data. The field data collection system having a stationary field monitor and one or more mobile field monitors capturing above-ground data. The stationary field monitor and the mobile field monitors having an associated GPS. The multi-depth sensors capture below-ground data and communicating the below-ground data to the stationary field monitor. A GPU processes the above-ground data and the GPS data to generate a point cloud data set.
