Smoothing : The minimum gap size that will be automatically
filled when creating a boundary from coverage.
l
Minimum coverage area : Any coverage smaller than the area
specified here will not automatically create a boundary.
l
Distance from coverage : Expands the created boundary the
specified distance from the coverage.
l
Excluded Regions
(on / off): Excluded regions are used to
indicate areas that will not have product applied if section control
is being used. Turning this on will automatically create excluded
regions from any gaps in coverage that are within the total
coverage area.
l
Minimum excluded area : Any gap in coverage smaller than the
area specified here will not automatically create an excluded
region. This prevents very small gaps in coverage inside the
boundary from automatically being created as excluded regions.
A boundary (or multiple boundaries) is drawn around the outside
edge of existing coverage. New boundaries are added to the
current field.
