Don,
Excellent example you provided. Thanks.
A couple of thoughts to muddy the water a tad. With controllers or monitors we typically factor in a delay of several seconds to correctly correlate a rate/yield with a specific location. On rolling ground the roll/yaw will affect the altitude. Are any systems intelligent enough to compensate recorded height differences to consider this aspect? Second muddy water point-on dry ground this is a moot point. On softer ground there will be a difference in the tire footprint penetration (ruts) as conditions vary across a field. Are any systems designed to accurately measure the ground itself as compared to a fixed point on the tractor or equipment? Or maybe these 2 points will not affect future decisions? Just thinking when we are claiming to have sub-centimeter accuracy that it is only true while level on a hard surface. Maybe I should have started a new thread for responses, lol.
