Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for transportation of material includes operating a material transportation vehicle according to a material transportation plan. The plan includes a representation of one or more regions within a geographical area, each of the regions being associated with a group of one or more communication stations and a representation of a route of travel within the geographical area. The route of travel traverses a first region of the one or more regions within the geographical area. The operating includes causing the vehicle to travel along the route of travel including causing the vehicle to enter the first region, accepting control information originating from a first communication station of the communication stations associated with the first region, the first communication station being authorized to control a material transportation resource of the vehicle in the first region, and causing an exchange of the material according to the accepted control information.
