Abstract: A network system and method therein for enabling management of a mass excavation project is described. The method comprise obtaining a first information indicating that the transporting asset has been loaded with excavated material; providing a load receipt based on the obtained first information, whereby the load receipt is associated with a load destination site for depositing the excavated material; obtaining a second information indicating that the transporting asset has off-loaded the excavated material at the load destination site and the weight of the excavated material; and determining a remaining material weight receiving capacity of the load destination site based on the obtained weight of the excavated material and the maximum material weight receiving capacity of the load destination site.

Abstract: A control unit manage loading and/or offloading of a vehicle. The control unit obtains information indicating one or more of: which vehicle that is to be loaded and/or offloaded, a target time for vehicle departure and a vehicle capacity. The control unit initiates loading and/or offloading of goods using assets. The control unit receives real-time information about an amount of goods that has been loaded and/or offloaded to and/or from the assets. The control unit determines, based on the real-time information, that the loading and/or offloading of the vehicle will be finished before, at or after the target time for vehicle departure. The control unit provides information indicating that the loading and/or offloading will be finished before or after the target time.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for indicating time discrepancies in a repeatable process performed by a plurality of vehicles includes receiving location data including a plurality of data points, each data point corresponding to a time-marked geographical position reported by a vehicle, processing the location data to determine at least one data point subset which is indicative of a point-of-interest, POI, for the repeatable process, comparing the determined data point subset with one or more data point subsets associated with predetermined POIs of a repeatable process, and based on an output of the comparison, identifying a number of POIs of the repeatable process, comparing time information associated with one of the determined POIs of the repeatable process with time information associated with the one or more predetermined POIs, and based on an output of the comparison of time information, identifying one or more time discrepancies in the repeatable process.

Abstract: A method of transport cycle balancing is provided, including recurrently receiving first data indicative of movements of a plurality of dump trucks operating in accordance with a respective transport cycle including a planned hauling of material between a same first site and at least one second site, forecasting an imminent imbalance of inbound and outbound trucks for the first site based on the received first data, determining one or more mitigative actions for the trucks in response to forecasting the imminent imbalance, and communicating the mitigative action to at least one truck.

Abstract: A system and related method for retrospectively a transporting asset wherein the system comprises a transporting asset for receiving material; a loading asset arranged at a loading site and configured to load the transporting asset with material; wherein the transporting asset is configured to be transported to a second site, the system further comprising: a weight measurement device arranged at the second site, the weight measurement device is configured to measure the weight of the transporting asset prior to the transporting asset offloading the material, the weight measurement device is configured to transmit weight data associated with the measured weight of the transporting asset; a controller configured to receive the weight data and instruct the loading asset to adapt its operation based on the weight data during subsequent loading.

Abstract: A production asset monitoring system, for monitoring current operating states of one or more production assets, associates a respective state machine which each asset in the one or more production assets, where each state machine implements a plurality of operating states, out of which operating states at least one state is categorized as a productive state and at least one state is categorized as an unproductive state. The production asset monitoring system further comprises a sensor system configured to detect a current operating state for each state machine, and the production asset monitoring system is configured to aggregate the states of a plurality of assets into a report indicative of production asset utilization.

Abstract: A production forecast system, executed on a remote server for monitoring a production rate of a mass excavating project at a project site is described. The system is arranged to obtain historical load data associated with transports of the project at the site, adapt a model configured to predict a future production rate for the mass excavating project based on the obtained historical load data, and predict a future production rate of the mass excavating project at the site based on current measured load data and on the adapted model.
