Abstract

A system and method are provided for the tracking of material milled via a milling machine, to improve recycling possibilities for the milling material. The milling material removed during milling is deposited onto a vehicle for transport to a deposition site. A first detection device associated with the milling machine detects data signals relating to the milling material, and the milling material is tracked via a documentation device comprising a user interface, based at least on the data signals. The documentation device may selectively display which milling material has been unloaded at a particular deposition site. A marking device may be provided to mark the milling material or the transport vehicle, and/or a second detection device may be provided to detect position data corresponding to the deposition site, wherein the marking and/or position data are interlinked with the data signals relating to the milling material in the documentation device.
