Define interior points
To complete a full survey, create guidance lines and then drive over all of the interior of the field
boundary, while the system records interior points.
1. At the Survey/Design panel, select Interior from the list.
2. Tap Record and drive around the interior of the field, gaining enough coverage to produce a
height map. You can change the data logging intensity in the FieldLevel II Survey/Design
settings (Coarse = 25 ft; Medium = 10 ft; Fine = 5 ft).
Define a section (optional)
After you create a boundary, you have the option to create sections that split the entire area into
portions. This enables you to create a design for each section instead of the entire area.
Sections can be useful after you finish working on the area for the day. Define the area that you
completed as a section. When you return to the area, you can level the remaining area to a second
best-fit plane. See Design (page 434).
There are two methods for defining a section.
l Method 1:
ll Begin recording the section line outside the boundary.
l Drive through the field to define the section line, then cross outside the boundary again.
l The section is defined.
l Method 2:
ll Record a section line inside the boundary.
l The ends of the line will extend to meet the boundary.
Design
After you have completed the survey, the system can create the design based on the information
gathered by the survey and the settings you enter as part of the design process. FieldLevel II defines
the three-dimensional height for the field and controls how the implement reshapes the ground.
The Autoplane functionality uses the topographic survey of your field to estimate its surface
elevations.
You can accept the AutoPlane calculation and have the system create a best-fit design, or manually
edit settings, including:
l Cut/Fill ratio:Amount of cut dirt that equals one volume of fill dirt.
l South -->North Slope:Angle of the slope from North to South.
l West --> East Slope: Angle of the slope from West to East.
