System and method for depositing material at a target location with a work vehicle

A method for depositing material at a target location with a work vehicle, the method comprising:

• receiving, with one or more computing devices, an input associated with a target weight of the material to be deposited at the target location;
• controlling, with the one or more computing devices, an operation of the work vehicle such that an implement of the work vehicle obtains a quantity of the material;
• controlling, with the one or more computing devices, the operation of the work vehicle such that the implement is raised from a first position to a second position;
• determining, with the one or more computing devices, a weight of the currently obtained quantity of the material as the implement is raised from the first position to the second position;
• controlling, with the one or more computing devices, the operation of the work vehicle such that the currently obtained quantity of the material is deposited at the target location;
• initiating, with the one or more computing devices, display of a current total weight of the material deposited at the target location;
• determining, with the one or more computing devices, when the currently obtained quantity of the material corresponds to a first quantity of the material to be deposited at the target location, wherein, when the currently obtained quantity of the material corresponds to the first quantity of the material, the current total weight of the material deposited at the target location corresponds to the weight of the currently obtained quantity of the material;
• when the currently obtained quantity of the material does not correspond to the first quantity of the material, adding, with the one or more computing devices, the determined weight of the currently obtained quantity of the material to the current total weight of the material deposited at the target location;
• determining, with the one or more computing devices, whether the current total weight of the material deposited at the target location is less than the target weight;
• and
• when the current total weight of the material deposited at the target location is less than the target weight, controlling, with the one or more computing devices, the operation of the work vehicle such that the currently obtained quantity of the material is deposited at the target location.

A system for depositing material at the target location with a work vehicle, the system comprising:

• a lift assembly including a boom and an implement coupled to the boom;
• a display device;
• and
• a controller communicatively coupled to the display device, the controller configured to control an operation of the work vehicle, the controller including a processor and associated memory, the memory storing instructions that, when implemented by the processor, configure the controller to:
• receive an input associated with a target weight of the material to be loaded at the target location;
• control the operation of the work vehicle such that the implement obtains a quantity of the material;
• control the operation of the work vehicle such that the implement is raised from a first position to a second position;
• determine a weight of the currently obtained quantity of the material as the implement is raised from the first position to the second position;
• control the operation of the work vehicle such that the currently obtained quantity of the material is deposited at the target location;
• initiate display of a current total weight of the material deposited at the target location on the display device;
• determine when the currently obtained quantity of the material corresponds to a first quantity of the material to be deposited at the target location, wherein, when the currently obtained quantity of the material corresponds to the first quantity of the material, the current total weight of the material deposited at the target location corresponds to the weight of the currently obtained quantity of the material;
• add the determined weight of the currently obtained quantity of the material to the current total weight of the material deposited at the target location when the currently obtained quantity of the material does not correspond to the first quantity of the material;
• determine whether the current total weight of the material deposited at the target location is less than the target weight;
• and
• control the operation of the work vehicle such that the currently obtained quantity of the material is deposited at the target location when the current total weight of the material deposited at the target location is less than the target weight.
