Verify implement receiver physical mounting location by using the machine and implement receiver actual reported locations

A work machine comprising:

• a frame;
• a front axle coupled to the frame with one or more front wheels that are supported for movement on the front axle;
• a rear axle coupled to the frame with one or more rear wheels that are supported for movement on the rear axle;
• a work vehicle GPS receiver coupled with the frame;
• an agricultural implement coupled to the frame, wherein the agricultural implement includes a connection mechanism configured to attach to the frame of the work machine;
• an implement GPS receiver mounted on the agricultural implement;
• a controller coupled to each of the frame, the work vehicle GPS receiver, and the implement GPS receiver, wherein the controller includes memory having instructions stored therein and a processor coupled to the memory, and wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to cause the processor to receive the work vehicle GPS data from the work vehicle GPS receiver, further wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to cause the processor to receive the implement GPS receiver data from the implement GPS receiver, and wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to determine an implement profile of the agricultural implement and a shifted implement profile of the agricultural implement that corresponds to a lateral distance and a longitudinal distance of the implement GPS receiver relative to the connection mechanism, wherein the determination of the shifted implement profile includes wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to disengage an automatic implement guidance control device to disengage the implement GPS receiver so that the implement GPS receiver does not track the agricultural implement as the agricultural implement travels over the ground surface.
