Airport ULD yard utilisation &
safety management.
AI computer vision detecting and tracking Unit Load Devices across an outdoor airport yard — partner attribution, safety-zone monitoring, and utilisation analytics for ground-handling operations.
A busy yard with no visibility, accountability, or safety signals.
A major airport operated a large outdoor yard used to store Unit Load Devices (ULDs). Multiple ground-handling teams and airline partners regularly accessed this area, but the airport had limited visibility into how the yard was being used — which partners occupied the most space, when peak congestion occurred, how much capacity was truly available, and where safety risks were emerging. ULDs were placed in restricted or unsafe zones, causing operational inefficiencies, blocking access paths, and creating compliance concerns.
Count it. Attribute it. Police the safety zones.
AI computer vision automatically detected, counted, and tracked ULDs across the yard — identifying which airline or ground-handling partner each belonged to based on container markings, monitoring adherence to designated storage boundaries, and flagging ULDs placed in restricted or unsafe locations.
Detection & counting
AI models detected and counted ULDs across the entire yard from existing camera feeds.
Partner attribution
Container markings and labels identified the responsible airline or ground-handling partner.
Safety-zone monitoring
Adherence to designated storage boundaries tracked; restricted-zone breaches flagged.
Historical utilisation analytics
ULD flow, utilisation patterns, congestion periods, and partner behaviour analysed over time.
Outdoor yard, indoor visibility.
Eye4.ai's computer vision brings live operational visibility to an environment that had been managed by sight and guesswork — turning the outdoor yard into a measurable, accountable space.
A yard you can see.
Partners you can hold to account.
Yard visibility
Unprecedented insight into how the ULD yard is used over time.
Safety compliance
Restricted-zone breaches flagged automatically; compliance enforced.
Partner accountability
Container markings attribute usage to the responsible organisation.
Capacity planning
Trend analysis supports infrastructure planning and seasonal operations.
