Abstract
Techniques are provided for selecting one or more angles for parallel lines of a path a mower will traverse while cutting an area. Each angle can be selected based on its alignment with the boundary of the area to thereby minimize the amount of grass that will remain uncut when the mower traverses a path that includes parallel lines at the selected angle.
