Abstract
An overlap control system includes an agricultural vehicle control system operable to utilize a product delay (PD) value in seconds, a start early (SE) distance, and/or a stop late (SL) distance to determine at least one offset edge from a location of an agricultural implement. The agricultural vehicle control system is operable to look ahead along a guidance swath or at least one predicted path of the agricultural implement, and to determine that an intercept will occur between the at least one offset edge and a boundary along the guidance swath or predicted path. The agricultural vehicle control system is further operable to calculate a distance or time to the intercept, and to send a command to change an on/off state of the agricultural implement in the calculated distance or time.
