Abstract

A system for integrated cargo inspection includes a non-invasive imaging system scanning a cargo container during an offload operation to obtain a digital image of its contents, a server including a control processor to control components of the system. The components including a computer vision system to perform vision system recognition techniques on the digital image and prepare a report having image icons representing the contents, a machine learning system analytically reviewing the report to generate heuristic analysis used to train the vision system, a computing device displaying at least one of a port plan, a scan view, a results list form dialog, and a results history log graphical displays. A method to implement the system and a non-transitory computer-readable medium are also disclosed.
