Method for route planning

A computer system for a route planning for a field processing where an agricultural machine processes a processing area,

• wherein,
• when a primary area of the processing area has been passed through by the agricultural machine under a manual control and position data of the agricultural machine has been automatically determined, the computer system is configured to:
• automatically determine all or part of a primary boundary which surrounds the primary area based on the position data;
• and
• when a secondary outer boundary of a secondary area, which secondary outer boundary is arranged outside the primary area, has been determined and meets the primary boundary at two connection points, a part of the primary boundary lying between the two connection points thereby forming an inner boundary between the primary area and the secondary area, the inner boundary, together with the secondary outer boundary, completely surrounding the secondary area, the computer system is further configured to:
• automatically determine a driving route for processing at least the secondary area,
• automatically generate control data for controlling the agricultural machine during the field processing, the control data representing a determined driving route, and
• use the control data to control the agricultural machine during the field processing so that the agricultural machine processes the processing area.

An agricultural machine comprising a computer system which is configured to provide a route planning for a field processing where the agricultural machine processes a processing area, wherein,

• when a primary area of the processing area has been passed through by the agricultural machine in a manually controlled manner, and position data of the agricultural machine has been automatically determined, the computer system is configured to:
• automatically determine at least a part of a primary boundary which surrounds the primary area based on the position data;
• and
• when a secondary outer boundary of a secondary area, which secondary outer boundary is arranged outside the primary area, has been determined and meets the primary boundary at two connection points, a part of the primary boundary lying between the two connection points thereby forming an inner boundary between the primary area and the secondary area, the inner boundary, together with the secondary outer boundary, completely surrounding the secondary area, the computer system is further configured to:
• automatically determine a driving route for processing at least the secondary area,
• automatically generate control data for controlling the agricultural machine during the field processing, the control data representing a determined driving route, and
• use the control data to control the agricultural machine during the field processing so that the agricultural machine processes the processing area.
