Abstract: There is provided context-based safety systems, and methods for operating thereof, for a subterranean environment. An example context-based safety system for a subterranean environment includes: a plurality of sensors configured to collect a set of operating data; and a processor configured to: continuously receive the operating data from sensors, the set of operating data including at least one visual data; receive a user prompt from a user defining a risk assessment in respect of the operating data; apply the user prompt to a vision-language model to: identify one or more abnormal activities observed from the set of operating data, each abnormal activity being unexpected within a safety context associated with the subterranean environment and an activity type of that abnormal activity; and identify one or more risky activities from the abnormal activities for the risk assessment; and generate one or more recommendations in response to the risky activities.

Abstract: Various methods and systems for determining one or more states of an autonomous vehicle for positioning when transitioning between two or more different environments are disclosed herein. The systems and methods disclosed herein can include a positioning system that includes two or more different positioning subsystems operable to generate positional data representing a current position of the autonomous vehicle.
