Abstract:
The disclosure describes, in one aspect, a method for determining a machine ground speed. The method includes determining a first speed from a position determining system, determining a direction the machine is traveling at the first speed, determining a machine rate of inclination, and determining a compensated ground speed as a function of the first speed and the machine rate of inclination.
