You are a dozer operator working on a land reclamation site. On top of
your vehicle is an antenna receiving signals from orbiting satellites that measure your position in three dimensions within centimeters. In front of you is a large computer screen that shows a picture of your machine as it moves across the site and displays exact cut and fill values to match a precomputed design surface.
