A method for enhancing a coverage distribution of a robotic garden tool (100) operating within a predetermined working area (200), wherein the robotic garden tool (100) is provided with steering control means operable to change a movement direction of the robotic garden tool (100), and a positioning device (120). The method comprises the steps of providing (301) working area related data, defining (302) a temporary working area (500), based on the working area related data, which temporary working area (500) at least partly extends within the working area (200), estimating (303) a current position (600) of the robotic garden tool (100), evaluating (304) the estimated current position (600), selectively adapting (305) the temporary working area (500), in response to the step of evaluating (304) the estimated current position, selectively adapting (306) a movement direction of the robotic garden tool (100), in response to the step of evaluating (304) the estimated current position. The steps of selectively adapting (305) the extension of the temporary working area (500) and selectively adapting (306) a movement direction of the robotic garden tool are performed so as to push the robotic garden tool towards the temporary working area or so as to keep the robotic garden tool within the temporary working area (500).
