English term

on line aggression

English Tech/Engineering Automation & Robotics Tractor guided by GPS
A tractor is guided by a GPS, and this is from a list in the software application:

wheel angle sensor
calibration status
max turning angle
approach aggression
on line aggression
steering parameters

Can anybody explain what "on line aggression" means?

how aggressive you want it to stay on line in rough terrain

When the terrain gets undulating the tractor can go off line very quickly, so you set the "on line aggression mode" and the GPS program will read quicker and provide a higher level of Tractor steering performance to maintain it on line with the coordinates set in the GPS.

angle of attack?

You will have to let us know what language the book came from.

This might be something to think about. For a grader with a long horizontal blade, the 'angle of attack' is the angle between the direction of travel and the blade. This is what I would interpret as the "on line aggression" if I HAD to say something. So, if your tractor is moving straight ahead, and the blade is at , say, 45 degrees with respect to the center line of the tractor, then your "angle of attack" would be 45 degrees.

As good a guess as I have at the moment.

Now you have me. I think you are going to have to provide a comment about this in any case. As an English speaker with a pretty good grasp of most things technical, I am at a loss as to what this might be.
Is it perhaps a poor fax or copy and might it be some other word?
Note from asker:
I don't know if English is the original language, but as a whole, it's written in pretty good English anyway.
I don't think there is any blade into the picture here. It's more about spraying. Picture something like this: http://www.cropcareequipment.com/photos/110_gallon_3pt_sprayers.jpg http://www.hardi.com.au/upload/images/aus/test/eagle%20spc%20spraying%200846_177_446x296.jpg
