Claim 0:
1. A computing system for autonomous vehicle operation, the computing system comprising:
a computing device configured to receive a plurality of event signals from at least a first autonomous vehicle that is traversing a path; and
a processor in electrical communication with the computing device and configured to determine whether the event signals are indicative of an obstacle at least partially blocking the path of the first autonomous vehicle,
wherein the computing device is further configured to:
receive, from at least a second autonomous vehicle, at least one characteristic of the obstacle captured by at least one sensor of the second autonomous vehicle; and

wherein the processor is further configured to:
determine, based on the characteristic of the obstacle, at least one task to clear the obstacle from the portion of the path, wherein the processor is further configured to compare the characteristic of the obstacle to a characteristic of a known obstacle;
identify, based on the characteristic of the obstacle, a third autonomous vehicle having a container that is capable of clearing the obstacle; and
deploy the third autonomous vehicle to complete the at least one task, wherein the at least one task is included in a task list for the third autonomous vehicle.
