Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatuses can accurately determine proper payload transfer from a working implement of a working machine. Such systems, methods, and apparatuses can identify occurrence of a payload discharge event for the working implement; determine whether a position of the working implement at a time of the identification of the occurrence of the payload discharge event is in a preset working area or a preset discharge area; omit the payload discharge event from registration for a tally of discharge material payload amount under a first case where the position of the working implement is determined to be in the working area; and register the payload discharge event for the tally under a second case where the position of the work implement is determined to be in the discharge area. The tally of the discharge material payload amount may be increased by a load amount associated with the load discharge event.
