BulkScanPro

Public documentation · Status: ⬜ draft

1. Purpose

What BulkScanPro is and how to integrate it with your systems. For engineering/internal docs see the internal site (access-restricted).

2. What it does

BulkScanPro measures the volume and length of railway cars and trucks contactlessly, in motion, using LiDAR — no scale, no stopping. Each vehicle in a convoy is detected, measured, photographed, and (optionally) matched to its RFID tag; the net loaded volume is derived from the loaded vs empty passes. Results land in the cloud and are available to your systems through several integration surfaces.

3. Integration is easy — pick your surface

You don't have to change how you work — BulkScanPro meets your stack where it is. See the Integration guide:

Surface	Best for	Page
REST API	apps, dashboards, pulling measurements on demand	REST API
Modbus TCP	plant SCADA / PLC reading live results at the edge	Modbus
S3 export	data lakes, batch pipelines, evidence archives	S3 export
Database	BI / SQL analytics over historical measurements	Database
