Abstract
A smart container yard includes systems for intelligently controlling operations of vehicles in the container yard using teleoperation and/or autonomous operations. A remote support server controls remote support sessions associated with vehicles in the container yard to provide teleoperation support for loading and unloading operations. Aerial drones may be utilized to maintain positions above a teleoperated vehicle and act as signal re-transmitters. An augmented reality view may be provided at a teleoperator workstation to enable a teleoperator to control vehicle operations in the smart container yard.
