Abstract
A system automatically controls a work machine including a work implement. The system includes a processor. The processor controls the work machine by selectively executing a normal digging mode in order to dig an actual topography at a work site, and a wall digging mode in order to dig a digging wall formed between a plurality of slots by digging the actual topography. When the wall digging mode is executed, the processor acquires starting edge position data indicative of a position of a starting edge of the digging wall. The processor determines a digging starting position based on the position of the starting edge of the digging wall. The processor controls the work machine to dig the digging wall from the digging starting position.
