1. A system for automatically adjusting an implement, comprising:

  • an inertial navigation system configured to output first position information associated with the implement;

    a processor configured to compare the first position information with a desired position and generate a comparison signal in response thereto; and

    a valve controller configured to adjust the implement based upon the comparison signal;

    a measuring device coupled to the inertial navigation system configured to output second position information to the inertial navigation system;

    wherein the inertial navigation system is periodically re-set from the measuring device to modify the first position information based upon an error estimate generated as a function of the first position information and the second position information.
