METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR TRANSPORTATION DOCK MANAGEMENT.

摘要

Dock management systems including a dock management server communicatively coupled to a mobile computing device are disclosed. The dock management server generates a work assignment based on a first location for an item and a final location for the item, transmits the first work assignment to the mobile computing device, receives a location of the mobile computing device, and associates the location of the mobile computing device with a current location of the item. The work assignment includes instructions to move the item from the first location to a second location. The second location may be a temporary holding area between the first location and the final location. Methods for assigning dock doors to arriving transportation vehicles are also disclosed.
