A method for generating a trajectory for a load transported by a hoisting appliance spanning a hoisting area. The method includes providing a 3-dimensional model of the hoisting area with located obstacles within the hoisting area, providing load parameters including load length, height, width and weight. Generating a trajectory for navigating through the hoisting area using the model of the hoisting area and taking in account located obstacles, load parameters; and load movement parameters including a maximum attainable speed of the hoist appliance with the load, wherein the generated trajectory includes a starting point, a target point and a number of consecutive line segments connecting the starting point and the target point. And optimizing the trajectory for speed by maximizing the length of at least one line segment in a main direction of travel in order to travel at a maximum attainable speed of the hoisting appliance with the load in the main direction of travel.
