1. A method for predicting the occurrence of an undesired operating event for a mobile platform operating within a designated area, the method comprising:

  • obtaining a plurality of parameters including a position of said mobile platform within said designated area for determining a kinematic motion of said mobile platform while said mobile platform is operating within said designated area;

    obtaining information related to surface geometry of said designated area;

    using said information related to surface geometry to determine physical constraints within said designated area that limit operation of said mobile platform within said designated area;

    using said plurality of parameters to determine a kinematic motion of said mobile platform within said designated area; and

    using said kinematic motion of said mobile platform and said physical constraints to predict if motion of said mobile platform will cause said mobile platform to incur an undesired operating event.
