The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for dynamically alerting off-screen machine status information The system includes a user interface on at least one display. The user interface includes, for example, (i) a monitoring section configured to display information corresponding to a first group of the machines; and an off-screen indicator configured to indicate that additional information corresponding to a second group of machines is available. The off-screen indicator is configured to provide a dynamically-changing indicator of information related to the second group of machines. The dynamically-changing indicator can change upon receiving a different prioritized status event corresponding to one or more machines of the second group of machines.

Systems and methods for managing on-site machines by dynamic off-screen indicators

The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for managing on-site machines. The method includes, for example, (i) receiving geospatial information associated with a work site; (ii) generating a user interface on at least one display; (iii) displaying a first machine of the multiple machines within the first section in a first compressed view; (iv) selecting a second machine of the multiple machines; (v) in response to the selection of the second machine of the multiple machines within the second section, visually presenting at least one portion of the work site in an elevated view; and (vi) visually presenting the second machine of the multiple machines in a second compressed view.

Systems and methods for managing on-site machines by spatial and contextual information

A system and method of onboard and offboard visualization of material characteristics in mining is provided. According to one aspect, the method includes a step of providing a voxel representation of a mining area. The voxel representation includes a plurality of voxels. At least one voxel of the plurality of voxels is compared to a geological model of the mining area, and at least one material characteristic is assigned to the at least one voxel based on the geological model of the mining area. In another aspect, the method includes calculating a volume of extracted material, assigning at least one quantified material characteristic to the volume of extracted material based on a geological model, and displaying a visual representation of the volume of extracted material and at least one quantified material characteristic using a visualization tool.
