Claim 9:
10. A method of transport asset monitoring, the method comprising:
receiving a first operation progress parameter data for a first transport asset from a first sensor, wherein receiving the first operation progress parameter data from the first sensor comprises receiving the first operation progress parameter data from at least one sensor selected from a list consisting of: an RFID sensor, a barcode scanner, and a computer vision (CV) sensor;
determining, based at least on the first operation progress parameter data, a predicted milestone parameter, the milestone parameter comprising a determination of an expected completion time of unloading at least one item remaining on the first transport asset and a determination of an expected departure-ready time when the first transport asset is expected to be ready to depart, based on current data and historical data, the current data comprising at least one of the first operation progress parameter data received from the first sensor or a data set, and the historical data comprising at least one of a record of past contents of the current data or actual operational activity timing; and
reporting the predicted milestone parameter to a remote node to integrate activity schedules for the first transport asset and at least one other transport asset.
