A controller may receive information identifying an area of interest from a plurality of candidate areas of interest including locations on the machine and external to the machine. The controller may obtain, using the one or more first sensor devices, data identifying material located at the area of interest; and generate a graphical representation based on the data. The controller may determine, using the one or more second sensor devices, at least one of a position or an orientation of one or more portions of the machine; and identify a portion of the graphical representation based on the at least one of the position or the orientation of the one or more portions. The portion may correspond to the material located at the area of interest. The controller may determine, using one or more computational models, a volume of the material based on the portion of the graphical representation.
