Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes obtaining harvest data indicative of a prior harvesting operation on a field, identifying a region of the field having already-harvested crop plants based on the harvest data, detecting a characteristic of crop plants in a field in a path of an agricultural harvesting machine in a direction of travel, generating, based on the detected characteristic, a height metric representing a height of the crop plants on a particular area of the field, and generating a control signal to control the agricultural harvesting machine based on the height metric and the identified region.
