A method includes determining a first task requiring one of a plurality of machines to traverse along a first route and determining a second task requiring the one of the plurality of machines to traverse along a second route. The method also includes determining a first route score for the first route, the first route score being at least in part indicative of a difficulty of traversing along the first route, and determining a second route score for the second route, the second route score being at least in part indicative of a difficulty of traversing along the second route. The method may also include receiving sensor data generated by a sensor associated with a first machine of the plurality of machines and determining, based at least in part on the sensor data, an alertness metric associated with an operator of the first machine. Based at least in part on the alertness metric being equal to or greater than a threshold alertness metric, the method may also include determining the first task for completion by the first machine or determining the second task for completion by the first machine. The method may also include sending, to an electronic device associated with the operator of the first machine, information about the first route or the second route; and receiving confirmation information indicative of the first machine traversing along the first route or of the first machine traversing along the second route.
