Yard & trailer count
Twice-daily sweep matching every trailer, swap-body, and tractor to the WMS / TOS record. Position, status, and dwell time logged.
Yard counts, now
continuous.
Trucks, trailers, containers, palletized goods. High-value moving inventory under continuous aerial oversight, with customs-grade chain of custody.
Yard inventories, dock-door event capture, after-hours theft deterrence, all without dedicated patrols. AEO and TAPA-aligned evidence trails.

APPROACH
From scheduled rounds to continuous intelligence.
AI-based vehicle counting reconciles trailer and truck inventory against the WMS / TMS manifest. Perimeter security runs around the clock with person and vehicle classification. Dock events trigger overflights that document cargo, seal, and timing. Customs documentation supports AEO, TAPA, and ISO 28000 evidence by default.
MISSION CATALOG
Eight recurring missions across yard, dock, and perimeter.
Container & swap-body inventory
Daily inventory across container yards and swap-body lots. Position and seal documented against shipment record.
Roof & HVAC thermal
Quarterly rooftop scan covering membrane integrity, HVAC units, and skylight condition without ladders or rope access.
Perimeter & gate patrol
24/7 fenceline coverage with intrusion classification. Vehicle gate cross-referenced to access list with timestamped evidence.
Dock event capture
Event-triggered overflight on truck arrival and departure. Cargo, seal, and dwell time documented per load.
Light-pole & signage check
Light-pole, signage, and fenceline asset condition spot check across the entire yard footprint.
Storm damage assessment
Post-event sweep of roof, fenceline, and outdoor inventory. Insurance-grade evidence captured within hours.
Customs cargo verification
Documented overflight per controlled shipment. Stored against manifest for AEO, TAPA, and MTA evidence trails.
DEPLOYMENT TIER
Two ways to subscribe.
Shared
Network service
For warehouses within 10km of an Aerion node. Multi-customer node infrastructure. Standard yard, dock-door, and theft-deterrence cadence. Faster onboarding.
Dedicated
Private network
Dedicated node for high-volume distribution centers requiring per-shift yard surveys, continuous after-hours patrols, and AEO/TAPA-grade documentation. 8-12 week deployment.
WHAT WE DETECT

REGULATORY EDGE
Operating from inside the EU's only U-space sandbox.
Tartu, Estonia operates the EU's only fully-operational U-space regulatory sandbox. Aerion operates inside this framework. That compresses BVLOS approval cycles that take 12-24 months elsewhere in Europe to weeks for our customers.
