PowerChina Yazhai Reservoir‑Earth‑rock Vehicle Automatic Cou
Project Background
Yazhai Reservoir Project of PowerChina is a medium‑sized water conservancy hub located in mountainous area of Guizhou. Massive earth‑rock excavation, backfilling and spoil transportation bring high‑frequency operation of hauling trucks. The construction site lies in remote mountain area with limited wiring conditions, humid rainy climate, large day‑night temperature difference and muddy dusty roads.
Traditional manual trip registration faces harsh field working conditions and high staffing cost. Missing and wrong records frequently occur in rainy nights. Paper ledgers are vulnerable to damp damage, bringing heavy workload for earth‑rock volume reconciliation. Without on‑site display and snapshot evidence, settlement disputes over transport trips often arise. The project requires unattended automatic vehicle counting solution adapted for mountain field construction.

Project Pain Points
- Severe mountain‑site conditions: humid‑rainy weather, muddy roads, large temperature difference, inconvenient cable wiring at remote posts.
- Poor manual‑on‑duty conditions: tough field environment leads to high labor cost and difficult staff rotation.
- High manual‑statistic error: heavy vehicle flow causes frequent missing or wrong records under bad light conditions.
- High risk of paper ledgers: paper documents easily get damp and lost, costing huge manpower for earth‑rock accounting.
- Lack of on‑site confirmation and traceable evidence for trip dispute investigation.
Solution

Chongqing Jinyun Machinery deployed Earth‑rock Vehicle Automatic Counting Robot for Yazhai Reservoir Project of PowerChina. Pole‑mount integrated devices are installed on main mountain haul roads. Hauling trucks pass without stop. AI license‑plate recognition identifies plates and distinguishes inbound‑outbound directions to accumulate transport trips. High‑brightness outdoor LED screen shows plate number and real‑time trip data. All snapshots, timestamps and counting records are stored in cloud platform. The system supports dual power supply: municipal electricity or solar energy. Light‑weight pole‑mount installation avoids large‑scale civil reconstruction for fast deployment in mountain field sites.
Hardware Advantages
‑ Industrial outdoor‑protected hardware, dust‑proof and moisture‑proof, temperature‑resistant for 7×24‑hour stable operation under humid, muddy and dusty mountain conditions in Guizhou.
‑ Dual power‑supply options: municipal power or independent solar power for off‑grid remote sites, reducing cable‑laying construction.
‑ Light‑weight pole‑mount installation with minimal civil work; equipment can be migrated and reused as working face shifts.
‑ HD camera with infrared fill‑light ensures reliable plate recognition under backlight, rainy and night low‑light scenarios.
‑ High‑brightness outdoor LED screen keeps readable under strong sunlight and rainy weather for on‑site data presentation.
Core Software Functions
- AI license‑plate recognition & auto counting: identify earth‑rock hauling‑truck plates automatically, distinguish inbound‑outbound directions and count excavation, backfilling and spoil‑transport trips.
- Real‑time LED on‑site display: show plate number and trip number upon vehicle passing to reduce settlement conflicts.
- Cloud archiving of vehicle snapshots: auto‑capture photos bound with plate number, timestamp, direction and trip data for traceable inquiry.
- Cloud management platform: remotely check full transport records on PC and mobile terminals; auto‑generate daily & monthly reports with export support for earth‑rock volume accounting and financial reconciliation.
- Vehicle whitelist & blacklist: authorize qualified construction vehicles and filter irrelevant social vehicles for site access control.
On‑site Application Effect
After deployment, earth‑rock hauling trucks pass detection points without stopping. License‑plate recognition and trip statistics are completed automatically, with counting results displayed synchronously on LED screen.
Dual power‑supply modes adapt to mountain‑field power conditions. Manual on‑duty posts at remote positions are eliminated, solving high‑error problems caused by manual registration under harsh mountain environment. Damp‑vulnerable paper ledgers are replaced by cloud‑based data storage. One‑click report export greatly reduces manpower for earth‑rock volume accounting.
Complete snapshot archives and transparent on‑site counting effectively resolve earth‑rock‑transport settlement disputes, realizing unattended digital management for mountain water‑conservancy construction.
Customer Benefits
- Cost reduction: Remove manual field‑on‑duty posts; solar power cuts wiring investment and overall labor cost.
- Strong mountain‑site adaptability: dust‑proof, moisture‑proof and temperature‑resistant for humid muddy mountain construction environment.
- Flexible deployment: dual power‑supply support; fast pole‑mount installation; equipment migratable and reusable with working‑face adjustment.
- Transparent & traceable counting: LED on‑site display plus cloud snapshot archives provide solid evidence for settlement and reduce business disputes.
- Remote digital supervision: managers access transport statistics remotely to support earth‑rock accounting and construction scheduling of water‑conservancy project.
