ULD identification and storage

Every container identified, with its time in storage. Unit load devices are counted by walking the lanes, so lost containers, stale stock and storage capacity are only known after the fact.

The problem

Why it matters.

Unit load devices are counted by walking the lanes, so lost containers, stale stock and storage capacity are only known after the fact.

How it works

Set up in four steps.

Self-service, in the browser, on the cameras you already own.

  1. 01Connect

    Use the cameras that already cover the storage lanes and entry points.

  2. 02Set the rule

    Draw the storage area and its lanes, and set how long a container may stay before it counts as stale.

  3. 03Measure

    Each container’s ID is read on entry and exit, so dwell time and lane occupancy are measured continuously.

  4. 04Act

    Container in storage over three days. Operations controller notified.
