Given the value and reliance many businesses have on port operations, it is important to maximise throughput and security where ever possible. Ports face several potential challenges such as stock loss, inefficient container processing and manual truck guidance procedures.
Sensor Dynamics have designed a system that will improve freight management, service, reporting and security. By utilising a combination of technologies such as licence plate recognition, occupancy sensors and variable messaging signs, Sensor Dynamics can automate site access procedures, reduce waiting times at the gate, increase tracking of containers and minimise human error
Solutions for Ports
Taxi Solutions
Taxi operators are an essential support service to busy ports around the world and their commercial well-being is an important aspect of maintaining high customer service standards to airport visitors.
Auditing Solutions
Knowing how many cars are parked in an area and for how long can be valuable information for a council, shopping centre or car park. All sorts of issues arise around staff parking in customer areas and abuse of restrictions.
Parking Solutions
Whether you have a private off-street parking complex or are managing an on-street parking area our parking solutions which combine a number of high-tech technologies can be used to optimise your efficiency, generate or protect revenue and greatly improve customer satisfaction.
Access Control
If you have a restricted parking area you’ll be aware of the issues with pin codes and key passes when trying to manage access points. This volatility means that unauthorised vehicles continue to make their way into areas where they are not allowed. Having a dedicated staff member there to cross-check each vehicle and provide statistics on the amount of time they’ve visited or how long they’ve parked is not a viable option.
Tolling Solutions
Busy ports generally don’t have the capability to capture vehicle movements, a system is required where insight can be gained, revenue can be created and throughput can be managed.
Leased Solutions
If you’re contemplating whether automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) can help your business gain the insight you require then a leased system is the answer: with no servers, no cabling, no integration and no commitment, you could have the information you need in weeks not months and at a fraction of the cost.
Point 2 Point
In order to gain an understanding of travel times or traffic patterns LPR cameras can be used to track individual vehicle movements from a single site to multiple sites or a highway. Valuable data around most used traffic routes, entry and exit times and time taken from one point to the other can be uncovered using this system.
Security Solutions
Visitor Management
Residential and commercial complexes often struggle with limited car spaces and tenants with visitors or additional cars taking up reserved spaces. A cost effective means of managing tenant and visitor vehicles entering the parking area is by scanning their plates and only letting in vehicles which are on a predetermined watch-list.
FAQs
We wish to automate our weighbridges, is this possible?
Sensor Dynamics work with weighbridge providers to link vehicle plate details with weight details. This can be incorporated into the overall workflow automation if desirable.
What is the first step?
The first thing to do is to come out to site for a site walk and requirements discussion. Every customer is different and so every solution is tailored to their needs.
