Claim 0:
1. A method for operating a mobility platform in a construction site based on an indication of one or more tasks to be performed at one or more task locations in the construction site and a design file representing in at least two dimensions the construction site, wherein the design file comprises one or more landmarks in the construction site, wherein the mobility platform includes at least one tool mounting location, the method comprising, with at least one processor:
generating a first path candidate for the mobility platform from a current location to the one or more task locations based on locations of the one or more landmarks and the one or more task locations, wherein the first path candidate has a first projected position accuracy of the mobility platform as the mobility platform moves along the first path candidate, wherein the first projected position accuracy is based on projected errors in position estimation from continuous displacement and/or sensing position relative to the one or more landmarks along the first path candidate;
generating a second path candidate for the mobility platform from a current location to the one or more task locations based on locations of the one or more landmarks and the one or more task locations, wherein the second path candidate has a second projected position accuracy of the mobility platform as the mobility platform moves along the second path candidate, wherein the second projected position accuracy is based on projected errors in position estimation from continuous displacement and/or sensing position relative to the one or more landmarks along the second path candidate;
providing as a generated path the first path candidate or the second path candidate based at least in part on a comparison of the first projected position accuracy and the second projected position accuracy; and
providing task commands to a controller disposed on the mobility platform based on the generated path and the one or more tasks.
