A method of coordinating clearance of a work area may comprise, via one or more work machines, comminuting material from a work area and delivering the comminuted material into one or more stockpiles; automatically monitoring, via one or more perception sensors, and for at least a first stockpile of the one or more stockpiles, one or more multidimensional characteristics thereof; ascertaining (e.g., detecting and/or predicting) boundary conditions associated with the at least first stockpile, based at least in part on the monitored one or more multidimensional characteristics thereof; and upon initiating or reestablishing communication between at least a first work machine of the one or more work machines and at least a first stockpile clearing vehicle of one or more stockpile clearing vehicles associated with the work area, selectively generating output signals corresponding to the one or more multidimensional characteristics and/or the boundary condition of the at least first stockpile.
