Multi-vehicle coordinated grade control system

A method for controlling grading operations using first and second work vehicles, the first work vehicle including a first grading implement and the second work vehicle including a second grading implement, the method comprising:

• storing, in a computerized memory of the first work vehicle, a model file that defines a plurality of grading operations;
• generating, by a first controller onboard the first work vehicle, a remote implement command for the implement of the second work vehicle, the remote implement command being based, at least partly, on a grading operation stored in the computerized memory;
• communicating, from the first work vehicle to the second work vehicle, the remote implement command for moving the implement of the second work vehicle toward a target orientation;
• receiving, by the first work vehicle, a feedback signal from the second work vehicle, the feedback signal based on an actual orientation of the implement of the second work vehicle;
• comparing, by the first controller, the actual orientation to the target orientation;
• generating, by the first controller, an adjusted remote implement command, the adjusted remote implement command being based, at least partly, on the comparison of the actual orientation and the target orientation;
• and
• communicating, from the first work vehicle to the second work vehicle, the adjusted remote implement command for moving the implement of the second work vehicle.
