1. A robotic device comprising:

  • a propulsion mechanism to move the robotic device;

    at least one sensor for sensing objects in a service area;

    a navigation system utilizing the at least one sensor and a digital map for navigating the robotic device within the service area; and

    a processing facility comprising a processor and a memory, the processing facility storing a set of instructions that, when executed, cause the robotic device to;

    sense objects in the service area utilizing the at least one sensor,derive a service plan for the service area comprising at least one service task based, at least in part, on real-time sensing of the service area and a stored digital map of the service area, wherein the navigation system utilizes the digital map and the real-time sensing to navigate within the service area during execution of the service plan, andoperate the robotic device to provide a service task to a generally planar surface proximate the robotic device in accordance with the service plan.
