Numerous factors may in fluence theproductivity and efficiency of the work machines at such sites inclu ding, machine operating conditions(e.g., state-of-charge data, state-of-health data, usage statistics, maintenance data, travel speed data,temperature data, w ear and tear on components, payload, tire pressure, etc.), site conditions (e.g. ,weather, visibility, material composition, terrain contour, route conditions a nd traffic, ground moisturelevels, etc.), skill or experience level of the mach ine operators. Since efficient assignment of various tasksto these work machine s may be complex and computationally intensive, detailed plans are put in place tomanage the work machines and the activities on the site.
