1. A road finishing machine comprising:
a screed including at least one compacting unit;
a GNSS receiver;
a material conveyor;
an actuator mechanism including a levelling cylinder and/or a transverse camber adjustment and/or a slope adjustment and/or a berm adjustment; and
an electronic control system which comprises a memory and a data processor, wherein in the memory, digital construction data, including a nominal height profile of a road pavement to be finished, are storable, and the control system is configured to automatically control, based on the construction data, the actuator mechanism to install paving material with the nominal height profile and thereby a defined transverse profile for a respective position of the road finishing machine determined with the GNSS receiver;
wherein the control system is configured to compare adjustment speeds of actuators of the actuator mechanism required for installation of the nominal height profile with possible adjustment speeds.
