A compaction mitigation system for a work area and a method of mitigating compaction in a work area may include determining a compaction map of the work area having compaction data associated with a plurality of reference points, passing a work tool through the work area at the plurality of reference points, and adjusting the work tool at the plurality of reference points based on the compaction data.

Method of mitigating compaction and a compaction mitigation system

In accordance with an example embodiment, a vehicle path planning system and a method for planning a path of a vehicle having a work tool are provided. The method includes determining an actual path through a work area, modifying the actual path with a margin to determine a modified path plan through the work area, and passing the work tool through the work area with the vehicle along the modified path plan.
