Abstract
One or more information maps are obtained by an agricultural work machine. The one or more information maps map one or more agricultural property values at different geographic locations of a field. An on-board sensor on the agricultural work machine senses the agricultural property as the agricultural work machine moves through the field. A prediction map generator generates a prediction map that predicts the agricultural property at different locations in the field based on a relationship between values in the one or more information maps and the agricultural property sensed by the on-board sensor. The prediction map can be output and used for automated machine control.
