Abstract
A controller for a work machine acquires current topography data indicating a current topography to be worked. The controller determines a target design topography based on the current topography. The target design topography indicates a target trajectory of a work implement. The controller generates a command signal to operate the work implement to excavate the current topography according to the target design topography. The controller acquires excavated topography data indicating a current topography that has been excavated. The controller modifies the target design topography to move the target design topography upwardly based on the excavated current topography.
