Method of operating a compactor machine via path planning based on compaction state data and mapping information
First Claim
1. A method of operating a compactor machine comprising the steps of:
- moving the compactor machine within a work area;
determining a work material compaction response disconformity exists between at least two regions of the work area; and
generating a compactor navigation signal responsive to the compaction response disconformity.

Abstract
A method of operating a compactor machine includes moving the compacting machine within a work area and determining a compaction response disconformity exists between at least two regions of the work area. The method includes generating a compactor navigation signal responsive to the compaction response disconformity. A method of compacting a work area may include determining a work material compaction response associated with at least one region of the work area is aberrant, and maneuvering the compactor machine within the work area responsive to a signal associated with the aberrant compaction response. A system for compacting a work area includes a compactor machine and an electronic controller configured via a compactor maneuvering control algorithm to detect an aberrant work material compaction response in a region of the work area and responsively generate a compactor navigation signal.

9. A method of compacting a work area with a compactor machine comprising the steps of:
-
sensing values indicative of a work material compaction response in a first region of the work area; sensing values indicative of a work material compaction response in at least one other region of the work area; determining a work material compaction response in the at least one other region of the work area is an aberrant compaction response; and maneuvering the compactor machine within the work area responsive to a signal associated with the aberrant compaction response. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
