`
`ABSTRACT
`
`A control and switchover system is provided for controlling
`milling depth and/or slope of a milling drum of a road con-
`struction machine during a milling operation to create a
`milled surface. The system controls the milling depth and/or
`slope at least in part on a measurement made with a first
`sensor. Without interrupting the milling operation the system
`switches over the control of the milling depth and/or slope to
`control based at least in part on a measurement made with a
`second sensor.
