Thanks to GPS tractors, combines, sprayers and more can accurately drive themselves through the field.

After the user has told the onboard computer system how wide a path a given piece of equipment will cover he will drive a short distance setting A & B points to make a line.

Then the GPS system will have a track to follow and it extrapolates that line into parallel lines set apart by the width of the tool in use.
