Centre county Pennsylvania, USA | Francis, your initial post gave the impression that you were blaming (not so good) operator B for not cutting same swath width as (very good) operator A. If that's the problem, and if you (yourself) set swath width in auto-steer, then all combine operator A or B needs to do is hang on to seat while auto-steer steers combine and cuts swath width you set when you programmed auto-steer. I do know that all of our auto-steer applications steer the swath width we program into auto-steer, if operator keeps his hands off the wheel and off of auto-steer swath width programming.
If all combines in your field have same platform width and same programmed auto-steer swath width then composite mapping should not be a problem. I'm sure there are some problems that auto-steer can not address (like different platform widths), but post processing that fixes steering skill deficient operator problems is not needed when auto-steer systems are used here. Those are fixed in real time by auto-steer.
