A logistics system (10) and a method are mounted on a vehicle (4) and utilize vehicle position control (8) for logistics operations, such as loading and unloading material to and from the vehicle (4). The position control can be GPS-based and/or based on linear movement of the vehicle (4), such as movement of a railcar (4) along a track (5). A computer-based position control subsystem (8) mounted on the vehicle (4) is connected to and operates vehicle-mounted components (40) for performing the logistics functions.

La présente invention concerne un système logistique (10) et un procédé, ce système étant embarqué à bord d'un véhicule (4), et ce procédé utilisant le contrôle de position de véhicule (8) lors d'opérations logistiques telles que le chargement et le déchargement de matériel effectués avec ce véhicule (4). Ce contrôle de position peut être réalisé par une technique de type GPS ou par une technique se fondant sur le déplacement linéaire du véhicule (4), tel que le déplacement d'un wagon le long d'une voie (5). Un sous système (8) de contrôle de position à base d'ordinateur embarqué à bord du véhicule (4), est relié de façon opérationnelle à des composants embarqués sur véhicule (40) afin d'améliorer les fonctions logistiques.
