  • Publication number: 20220120060
    Abstract: A computing device generates a graphical user interface displaying a three-dimensional representation of the site comprising a position of a vehicle capable of moving material within the site and a target location within the site for the vehicle to move material. The computing device transmits a set of instructions for the vehicle to move a volume of material from the target location. The computing device receives sensor data describing a depth of the target location, a current volume of material moved from the target location, and a position of the vehicle. The graphical user interface displayed on the computing device is modified to display the current depth of the target location, and the position of the vehicle relative to the target location. The computing device modifies the set of instructions based on the received sensor data and provides the modified set of instructions to the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20220070611
    Abstract: In response to a first user input to a graphical user interface, a computing device generates an initial geofence around a target location in a site. The computing device transmits operations for an earth shaping vehicle (ESV) to perform while navigating within the initial geofence. The computing device receives an indication of an obstacle within the initial geofence detected by the ESV. In response to a second user input via the graphical user interface, the computing device generates an updated geofence that includes the target location but excludes the obstacle. The computing device transmits instructions for the ESV to navigate within the updated geofence.
