Abstract LOCATION ASSISTED MACHINE RETARDING CONTROL SYSTEM 5 A retarding control system for a machine is disclosed. The retarding control system may include a locator, configured to sense a location of the machine. Additionally, the retarding control system may include a sensing system configured to sense at least one a parameter indicative of a retarding of the machine. The retarding control system may also include a retarding system 10 configured to retard the machine and a braking system configured for braking the machine. The retarding control system may also have a map configured to store at least one known retarding condition and at least one known retarding location. Further, the retarding control system may include a controller. The controller can be in communication with the locator, the sensing system, the retarding system, 15 the braking system and the map. The controller may be configured to update the map based on the location, and the retarding condition. (NE (NN C(N
