Abstract

One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for identifying field conditions of a field. Site conditions of a target site affecting machine sink can be identified using real-time or historical data. Soil conditions, weather conditions, moisture levels, and other factors may be used to determine whether a target site may result in machine sink of a target piece of equipment. The machine sink information can be identified for a target area, that comprises a target site, and a machine sink map can be generated for the site. Target equipment specifications can be used to determine whether the target equipment may effectively traverse the target site based on the machine sink map. Further, a travel path may be generated for a piece of target equipment based on the machine sink map, site conditions, and the equipment specifications.
