System and method for determining lift heights of a stockpile

An article of manufacture including a non-transitory, tangible computer readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, by the processor, location coordinates of vehicles making dumps on a second lift of a stockpile;
• aggregating and averaging, by the processor, the location coordinates of the vehicles to determine a location of the vehicles;
• receiving, by the processor, elevation data of the vehicles from the location coordinates of the vehicles;
• determining, by the processor, a second elevation of the second lift based on the elevation data of the vehicles;
• and
• determining, by the processor, a height of the second lift by deducting a first elevation of a first lift from the second elevation of the second lift.

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a tangible, non-transitory memory configured to communicate with the processor,
• the tangible, non-transitory memory having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
• receiving, by the processor, location coordinates of vehicles making dumps on a second lift of a stockpile;
• aggregating and averaging, by the processor, the location coordinates of the vehicles to determine a location of the vehicles;
• receiving, by the processor, elevation data of the vehicles from the location coordinates of the vehicles;
• determining, by the processor, a second elevation of the second lift based on the elevation data of the vehicles;
• and
• determining, by the processor, a height of the second lift by deducting a first elevation of a first lift from the second elevation of the second lift.
