Distance to Swath

The guidance parameters, Distance to Swath and Direction to Swath, are used to define the spatial relationship
between the GPS antenna and the product delivery location. Examples of a product delivery location would be the
boom on a sprayer or the spinner box on a fertilizer spreader. The position of the swath with respect to the GPS
antenna will be used to accurately create an As Applied map. The Distance to Swath parameter defines the distance
from the GPS antenna to the delivery location. The GPS antenna should always be mounted on the center-line of the

vehicle.
