Abstract: A method includes performing, with a compacting machine, a first pass to compact a first portion of a work area to compact a first lane. A guidance system acquires position information representing the first compacted lane. A second pass is performed to compact a second portion of the work area adjacent the first portion. The guidance system acquires current position information of the machine representing current positioning of the machine during the second pass. Comparing the position information of the machine representing the first compacted lane with the current position information, determines whether the current positioning overlaps the first compacted lane a specified amount. When the second pass is determined to overlap the first compacted lane, in-compliance visual indicia is generated. When the second pass is determined to not overlap the first compacted lane with the specified amount, out of compliance visual indicia is generated.

Abstract: In some implementations, a monitoring system may include a steering system of a machine, a sensor configured to detect movements of the steering system that are indicative of a steering angle of the machine, and a controller. The controller may be configured to monitor, via the sensor, the steering angle of the machine. The controller may be configured to determine, based on monitoring the steering angle, that the steering angle satisfies a threshold that is indicative of the steering angle being excessive for an operation of the machine. The controller may be configured to cause, based on the steering angle satisfying the threshold, the machine to provide an indication that the steering angle is excessive.
