MATERIAL TRACKING BASED ON VEHICLE WORK TOOL LOCATION
A worksite controller can automatically track movement of material on a worksite, based on location information and work event information provided by vehicles on the worksite. The worksite controller can determine and/or use a location of a work tool of a vehicle, rather than coordinates determined by a location sensor mounted elsewhere on the vehicle, to determine when the work tool is located within defined boundaries of work zones associated with material. When the worksite controller determines that the vehicle performed a work event to interact with material while the work tool was within a particular work zone, the worksite controller can automatically update material tracking information associated with the work zone.
