Trip proof for a dump-truck fleet: an onboard loop instead of a stationary measuring point

How a logistics contractor can prove a completed trip to a third-party customer and shut down off-the-books trips and fuel theft inside the fleet. IQoko Onboard travels with the truck across sites with no on-site infrastructure: tilt, load, fuel and GNSS as signals of an off-the-books trip, a digital trip act as the argument in a "his word against mine" dispute.

Bulk shipment control at a quarry: which CMP configuration to choose

A selection matrix for the CMP configuration to fit a quarry: when IQoko Gate is enough, when you need Gate Pro with CV volume estimation and scale integration, and how a 60–90 day pilot turns a loss hypothesis into a confirmed ROI. From the JTBD of three decision-makers — the CEO, security, and the CFO — to configuration criteria.

Stationary CMP payback: how to calculate the trip-control recovery period

A step-by-step methodology for calculating the payback of a control-and-measurement station: the payback-period formula, what to attribute to CapEx and OpEx, how to factor in trip flow and the recoverable share of losses, and why a 60–90 day pilot measures that share before purchase. It turns the 5–15% loss range into a reproducible payback model for your site.

Freight Regulatory Calendar 2026-2027: GosLog, registries, mandatory EPD

A navigator calendar of carrier and quarry obligations: forwarders registry (~30 April 2026), GosLog launch (1 March 2026), mandatory EPD (1 September 2026), carriers registry (1 March 2027). For each rule — the deadline, what to do, and where TripCode provides tamper-proof primary data.

The Cost of Opacity in Bulk-Materials Haulage

Opacity in bulk-materials haulage costs a quarry 5–15% of turnover: for ₽500M turnover that is ₽25–75M a year. We break down the anatomy of losses — short-loading, theft, off-the-books trips, volume disputes — and why GPS, scales and cameras on their own do not close them.

How Computer Vision Estimates Cargo Volume

Monocular computer vision estimates the volume of bulk cargo in a dump-truck body from a single ordinary camera — without a LoadScan or Walz laser frame. We break down how CV volume estimation works, why a LiDAR reference is needed, how the approach differs from laser scanners, and what metrological certification under 102-FZ delivers.

TripCode — the new standard of trip provability

TripCode is a verifiable digital trail of a trip: CV-based cargo volume estimation, ANPR, video and timestamps/geozones bound into a single trip. We break down what it is, why it is practically impossible to forge, how it differs from telematics and weighing, and how it becomes the data source for the GosLog digital transport passport and EPD.
