System and method for load evaluation

A load evaluation system for assessing the loading of material from a loading work vehicle having a load bucket to a haulage work vehicle having a load bin, the load evaluation system comprising:

• at least one volume sensor including an imaging device or a detection and ranging device coupled to the loading work vehicle and configured to sense a volume of material in at least one of the load bucket and the load bin and generate a corresponding volume data signal;
• and
• a first controller onboard the loading work vehicle and a second controller onboard the haulage work vehicle, wherein at least one of the first and second controllers is configured to:
• receive the volume data signal from the at least one volume sensor;
• receive a unique haulage work vehicle identifier;
• associate volume data of the corresponding volume data signal with the unique haulage work vehicle identifier;
• and
• store in memory the associated volume data and haulage work vehicle identifier.
