Automatic OCR reading of ISO 6346 BIC codes from any angle and orientation. Cross-checks with truck license plates (LPR). Deploys on existing IP cameras — no special hardware needed.
From camera feed to logged event in under a second. Container code, truck plate, GPS and photo — all captured automatically.
Any IP camera at a gate or inspection point captures the container as it passes. No special hardware needed.
Metrici locates and reads the ISO 6346 code — horizontal, vertical or upside-down, any font, any colour, partial occlusion handled.
The container code is matched against the vehicle license plate (LPR) and any manifest or whitelist in the database.
Every event is saved with code, timestamp, GPS, direction and photo. Alerts fire instantly for missing codes or manifest mismatches.
Metrici reads and validates all four ISO 6346 components in real time: owner prefix (4 letters), equipment category (1 letter), serial number (6 digits) and check digit. Invalid checksums trigger an instant alert.
Codes can appear on the side, roof or door of a container, in any orientation. Metrici handles all of them without configuration changes.
Transform container operations from manual data entry to fully automated, error-free tracking.
No more clipboard logging or keyboard entry. Every ISO 6346 code is read, validated and saved automatically — zero human intervention.
Cross-check container codes against truck plates and manifests in real time. Alert instantly when a container-truck pair doesn’t match expectations.
Read codes at full vehicle speed. No stopping, no slowing down. Containers are identified and logged as they pass through the gate.
Every event is logged with code, timestamp, GPS, direction and photo. Exportable audit trails meet customs and trade compliance requirements.
Deploy on IP cameras you already own. No RFID tags, no barcodes, no container modification. Pure software on infrastructure you have.
Container OCR is the foundation. LPR cross-checks, GPS tracking, photo evidence and external integrations make it a complete logistics platform.
Reads codes horizontal, vertical and upside-down. Works regardless of font, paint colour or partial weathering.
Matches each container code to the license plate of the truck carrying it. Alert if the pair doesn’t match the manifest.
Every read event is stored with GPS coordinates for precise location logging across an entire port or logistics network.
Full photographic evidence saved for every container detected — timestamped and searchable in the Metrici interface.
Instant alert when a container is not on the expected manifest, belongs to a watchlist, or when the code cannot be read.
Sends read events via HTTP POST to port management systems, customs software or any third-party logistics platform.
From port gates to rail yards, customs checkpoints to manufacturing sites — container OCR at every handoff point.
Log every container entering or leaving. Match to truck plate and manifest automatically at full vehicle speed.
Each container code is automatically paired with the license plate of the truck carrying it. Alert if they don’t match the manifest.
Container code + weight + truck plate captured in one pass at the weighbridge. Fully automated, paperless record.
Track containers from arrival dock to storage bay to dispatch. Photo evidence and GPS at every checkpoint.
Flag containers on a watchlist instantly. Alert officers in real time. Full audit trail for every crossing event.
Identify containers selected for physical inspection before they reach the dock. Pre-alert inspectors with decoded code and photo.
Automatic documentation for every container movement. Exportable logs meet international trade and customs compliance requirements.
Read codes on containers as they are loaded onto rail wagons. Verify transfer manifests and log each wagon-container pairing.
Track raw material containers through a production site. Know what arrived, where it went, and when it left.
Automate container check-in and check-out at storage facilities. Full movement history per container unit.
Feed container read events into traffic management platforms for automated routing, slot booking.
