SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ESTIMATING MATERIAL COMPACTION BASED ON ELECTRIC MOTOR DRIVE POWER

A method for estimating material compaction can include creating compaction lookup tables based on total drive motor current and slope angle for each of a plurality of machine types. The method can include receiving telematics data related to total drive motor current for an individual machine and receiving telematics data related to a slope angle for the individual machine. The method can further include receiving a machine type of the individual machine and selecting a compaction lookup table corresponding to the individual machine type. A compaction value is determined from the selected lookup table based on the total drive motor current and the slope angle.
