1. A method comprising:
- sensing first information relating to an operation of a dump body of a hauling machine, the hauling machine operating in at least a partially autonomous manner;
receiving, by one or more processors, the first information, wherein the first information comprises an operational state of the hauling machine;
determining, by the one or more processors, a failure condition of the operation based at least on the received first information;
transmitting a notification relating to the failure condition from the one or more processors to a worksite controller, wherein the notification comprises an indication that a dump site is full; and
causing a boost pressure to be applied to the dump body of the hauling machine.

8. A system comprising:
-
a sensor configured to sense first information relating to an operation of a dump body of a hauling machine, the hauling machine operating in at least a partially autonomous manner; a processor; and a memory bearing instructions that, upon execution by the processor, cause the system at least to; receive the first information; determine a failure condition of the operation based at least on the received first information; transmit a notification relating to the failure condition to a worksite controller; and cause a boost pressure to be applied to the dump body of the hauling machine, the applied boost pressure increasing a lowering force applied to the dump body. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
sensing first information relating to an operation of a dump body of a machine, the first information including an operational state of the machine; receiving, by one or more processors, the first information; determining, by the one or more processors, a failure condition of the operation based at least on the received first information; generating a response signal based at least on the determined failure condition, wherein the response signal comprises one or more of a notification of the failure condition from the one or more processors to a worksite controller, and a remediation to the failure condition, wherein the notification comprises an indication that a dump site is full. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
