I'm a farmer, and I've been mistakenly using GIMP for years to prepare

You would probably be better served with GIS (Geographic Information
System)
software such as GRASS GIS for Linux:

GIMP is for basic image manipulation on plain old raster image formats.
QGIS is cross platform and would seem like a better match.
Attempting to shoehorn such a program into GIS analysis is just asking
for problems.
