Abstract
A path planning system for an agricultural machine to automatically travel inside and outside a field includes a storage to store a map of a region including fields and roads, and a processor to generate a path for the agricultural machine on the map. The map includes attribute information representing, for each of the roads, at least one of whether the road is an agricultural road, whether the road is a road along a specific feature, or whether the road is a road where satellite signals from GNSS satellites are receivable. The processor is configured or programmed to generate at least one of a path including an agricultural road with priority, a path including a road along the specific feature with priority, or a path including, with priority, a road where the satellite signals are receivable, as the path for the agricultural machine based on the attribute information.
