Abstract
A control system of an agricultural work vehicle system includes a controller configured to receive a set of swath paths, and separate each swath path of the set of swath paths into a set of half swaths. Also, the controller is configured to determine multiple possible connecting paths, and each connecting path of the multiple possible connecting paths connects one half swath of a first half swath of the set of half swaths to a second half swath of the set of half swaths. Moreover, the controller is configured to determine a cost for each possible connecting path of the multiple possible connecting paths. Further, the controller is configured to select a chosen connecting path from the multiple possible connecting paths based on the cost, and output a signal indicative of a travel path for an agricultural work vehicle.
