Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods are provided for automatically conforming guidance of work vehicles to detected conditions in a work area. Upon determining a deviation of a work vehicle's current movement path from a first planned movement path with respect to the work area, at least a portion of the work area may be identified as a region of interest, along with coverage characteristics associated with the region of interest, based at least in part on the determined deviation. A second planned movement path is generated for the work vehicle and/or another work vehicle subsequently traversing the work area relative to the region of interest, wherein the generated second planned movement path accounts for the coverage characteristics associated with the region of interest. The second planned movement path may be generated to avoid the region, prevent turns within the region, optimize work vehicle operation within the work area generally, etc.

Abstract: An agricultural machine includes a turn generation system that identifies a turn start point and turn end point that indicate the starting point and ending point, respectively, of a turn that the agricultural machine will make to transition from a current pass to a subsequent pass. The guidance system identifies a turn contour and projects that contour onto a headland area of the field. The turn generation system generates a turn path based upon the turn starting and ending points and the turn path contour.

Abstract: A guidance system that automatically switches guidance modes in connection with executing an end turn. As the agricultural machine travels in a first, row sense guidance mode along a first guidance line in a non-coverage area, an approaching boundary between the non-coverage area and a headland area is identified. If the headland area contains crop rows, then, upon reaching the boundary, the guidance system switches to a second, GPS guidance mode. The agricultural machine travels along a first turn guidance line from the first guidance line to a preexisting headland guidance line, wherein the guidance system switches to the first guidance mode. The agricultural machine then travels in a direction parallel to the crop rows of the headland area. When leaving the headland guidance line, the guidance system switches to the second guidance mode, and then back to the first guidance mode upon the agricultural machine returning to the boundary.

Abstract: An agricultural system automatically detects a turn pattern and automatically identifies a next path that will be taken through the field. The agricultural system automatically controls the machine through the next turn that navigates the machine from a current path to the identified next path. This continues until a land size has been completed at which point the agricultural system identifies a next land in a field.
