Publication number: 20250166380Abstract: Methods and systems for providing mechanisms for automated inventory control are provided. In embodiments, an operational workflow for providing automated inventory control includes automated data collection and automated image data analysis. The automated data collection includes capturing image data for a storage facility by a capturing device (e.g., an unmanned aerial system (UAS)). The automated image data analysis includes functionality to detect objects (e.g., containers, trailers, empty slots, and/or other objects) appearing in the image data (e.g., using a machine learning (ML) model), to identify the objects in the image data (e.g., using the ML model), to inspect the objects (e.g., including determining a condition and/or location of the objects) based on the collected image data and metadata associated with the image capturing device and correlated to the image data (e.g.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 16, 2025Publication date: May 22, 2025Applicant: BNSF Railway CompanyInventors: Nicholas Dryer, Zachery Bettis, Bryan Gabric, Michael I.

Publication number: 20240257030Abstract: Methods and systems for providing automated asset management are provided. In embodiments, an asset data collector is configured to automatically collect asset data associated with assets in an intermodal facility according to a mission plan. An automated data collection configurator is configured to configure the mission plan based on one or more parameters and to instantiate the asset data collector to initiate collection of the asset data according to the mission plan. An automated asset data analyzer is configured to identify data in which one or more assets appear, to identify the one or more assets detected in the set of data, to inspect, based on the set of data in which the one or more assets are detected, the one or more assets to determine a condition of the one or more assets, and to output the condition of the one or more assets.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 5, 2024Publication date: August 1, 2024Applicant: BNSF Railway CompanyInventors: Nicholas Dryer, Zachery Bettis, Bryan Gabric, Michael I.
