Abstract
A system for determining a position of a power rail of an electric power supply system at a worksite includes a work machine, a first sensor that generates a first input signal corresponding to a geographical position of the work machine, a second sensor that generates a second input signal indicative of a distance between the work machine and the power rail, and a controller including one or more processors. The one or more processors determine the geographical position of the work machine based on the first input signal received from the first sensor, determine the distance between the work machine and the power rail based on the second input signal received from the second sensor, and determine a position of the power rail at the worksite based on the geographical position of the work machine at the worksite and the distance between the work machine and the power rail.
