Abstract

Methods and systems for determining an action for a vehicle. The system includes an electronic controller configured to determine a planned route of the vehicle, determine local astronomical data based upon the planned route, compare the local astronomical data to the planned route of the vehicle to determine a probability of completion of the planned route, and if the probability of completion is below a threshold, generate a command indicating an action for the vehicle.
