Creating a Boundary

Internal and External Boundaries are created with similar steps. The following steps outline the process for creating a boundary while driving a vehicle. Boundaries may be created during an operation (e.g. planting), but some functions are not available.

An Internal boundary can NOT be created without first creating an External boundary for the field.
