A combine harvester includes (i) a grain tank for storing separated grain and having a bottom end and a top end, and (ii) a grain tank level sensor array for detecting a level of grain in the grain tank. The grain tank level sensor array includes a plurality of sensors, wherein the grain tank level sensor array extends between the bottom end and the top end of the grain tank. The sensors are spaced apart between the bottom end and the top end. A spacing between adjacent sensors decreases in a direction towards the top end of the grain tank.

A method of controlling a crop transfer process for transferring crop between an agricultural harvester and a nearby trailer. The method includes, at different points in time, using an optical sensor of the agricultural harvester to obtain image data relating to the nearby trailer. The obtained image data is processed to determine a status parameter of the nearby trailer at those different points in time. Based on the determined status parameter at the different points in time, the status parameter of the nearby trailer at a further and later point in time is estimated. The crop transfer process is then adjusted in dependence of the estimated status parameter.

A system includes an agricultural crop receiving vehicle with a bin for receiving and holding agricultural crop material and an electromagnetic detecting and ranging module for generating data indicating the presence and location of a harvester proximate the agricultural crop receiving vehicle. One or more one or more computing devices are configured to receive the data from the electromagnetic detecting and ranging module, determine a location of the harvester relative to the agricultural crop receiving vehicle, and use the location information to generate control signals for controlling movement of the agricultural crop receiving vehicle to coordinate receiving crop material in the bin from the harvester or for controlling a graphical user interface to present a visual indicator of the relative locations of the agricultural crop receiving vehicle and the harvester.

An automated grain filling system including a sensor and a processor. The sensor is configured to detect at least a portion of an upper perimeter of a receiving container and at least a portion of an upper surface of a grain mound in the receiving container. The processor is configured to compare the detected portion of the upper perimeter and the detected portion of the upper surface, and direct the operation of a grain transfer element. The grain transfer element is configured to transfer grain from a supplying container to the receiving container. The directed operation of the grain transfer element is based at least in part on a result of the comparison of the detected portion of the upper perimeter and the detected portion of the upper surface.

A harvester includes a first electromagnetic detecting and ranging module for detecting the location of a receiving vehicle and a second electromagnetic detecting and ranging module for detecting at least one of a fill level and a distribution of processed crop in a grain bin of the receiving vehicle. One or more computing devices are configured to receive first data from the first electromagnetic detecting and ranging module, receive second data from the second electromagnetic detecting and ranging module and use the first data and the second data to generate graphic data defining a graphical representation illustrating the relative positions of an unload conveyor of the harvester and the grain bin and illustrating at least one of a fill level and a distribution of processed crop in the grain bin. An electronic device is configured to use the graphic data to present the graphical representation on a graphical user interface.

A first in-situ sensor detects a characteristic value as a mobile machine operates at a worksite. A second in-situ sensor detects a material dynamics characteristic value as the mobile machine operates at the worksite. A predictive model generator generates a predictive model that models a relationship between the characteristic and the materials dynamics characteristic based on the characteristic value detected by the first in-situ sensor and the material dynamics characteristic value detected by the second in-situ sensor. The predictive model can be output and used in automated machine control.

An agricultural system includes: one or more sensors, remotely positionable from and communicably coupled to an agricultural work machine, configured to detect one or more machine operating effect attributes and generate sensor data indicative of the detected one or more machine operating effect attributes; a display screen; one or more processors; and memory storing instructions executable by the one or more processors. The instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to: obtain the sensor data; and generate, based on the sensor data, an interface on the display screen, the interface indicating a location of each machine operating effect attribute of the detected one or more machine operating effect attributes relative to the agricultural work machine.
