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

A surge control system and method include a valve assembly located along a fluid conduit downstream of one or more compressors in a flow circuit, and configured to receive a fluid stream from the one or more compressors. The valve assembly includes a valve body, a pitot tube integrated onto the valve body, and a pressure sensor device operably connected to the pitot tube. A controller of the surge control system receives pressure measurements generated by the pressure sensor device. The pressure measurements represent pressure in the pitot tube over time. The controller analyzes at least one of (i) the pressure measurements or (ii) flow velocity values derived from the pressure measurements, and detects a surge condition in the flow circuit based on oscillations in the at least one of the pressure measurements or the flow velocity values.

A display device, for a hybrid vehicle for displaying an output relating to traveling of the hybrid vehicle, includes a first region and a second region. The first region indicates the output in a first mode in which an internal combustion engine is stopped and the vehicle travels using an electric motor. The second region indicates the output in a second mode in which the internal combustion engine is operated to travel. The first region and the second region are independently disposed in a predetermined range. Numerals for scale are marked in either one of the first region and the second region.

An apparatus for determining or monitoring the fill level of a fill substance located in a container in a process, comprising: a signal producing unit; an in-coupling/out-coupling unit an antenna unit; wherein the antenna unit has a hollow conductor and an antenna element widening toward the fill substance and the antenna unit transmits high-frequency measuring signals in the direction of the surface of the fill substance and receives echo signals reflected on the surface of the fill substance; and a control/evaluation unit, which ascertains the fill level of the fill substance in the container based on travel time of the measuring signals. In or on the antenna unit a process isolation is provided, which is at least approximately transparent for the high-frequency measuring signals and which protects the in-coupling/out-coupling unit against influences of the process. The process isolation is an isostatically pressed, molded part, which is manufactured of at least two plastics having different physical and/or chemical properties.
