SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PREDICTIVE HARVESTING LOGISTICS

An agricultural harvesting system obtains a yield map that maps yield values to different geographic locations in a worksite and a speed map that maps agricultural harvester speed values to different geographic locations in the worksite. The agricultural harvesting system identifies a geographic location in the worksite at which the agricultural harvester will be full, at least to a threshold level, based on the yield map; identifies a geographic location in the worksite at which a material transfer operation is to start based on the geographic location at which the agricultural harvester will be full, at least to the threshold level; and identifies a time at which the agricultural harvester will arrive at the material transfer location, based on the speed map. The agricultural harvesting system can control one or more of the agricultural harvester and a receiving machine.
