The method is characterized in that it comprises at least the steps, proceeding under the control of a central computer via a digital network, of A) presetting an optimum criterion; B) collecting information relating to the current state of the ground; C) collecting information relating to the current state of the ground working device, including at least its position; and D) calculating the control of the ground working device at which the optimum criterion is minimized. Using the invented method ground can be worked with an increased efficiency compared to the known method. The invention likewise relates to a computer program comprising program instructions for having a computer perform the method, and to a computer adapted to run the computer program.
