Remote yard and site monitoring in Terre Haute
Live agents and AI cameras keep watch over Terre Haute's trucking terminals, warehouses and rail-served yards, checking drivers in at the gate and calling police the moment someone's on site who shouldn't be.
Local and live
Where I-70 crosses US 41
Terre Haute sits where I-70 crosses US 41, about equal distance between I-65 and I-69, and the city's economic development office counts it about 120 miles from each of Indiana's three ports: Burns Harbor on Lake Michigan and the Ohio River ports at Jeffersonville and Mount Vernon. CSX Transportation runs Class I freight service through the city, and the Indiana Rail Road Company operates 500 miles of track statewide and hauls more than 15 million tons of freight a year. Terre Haute Regional Airport's main runway, at 9,020 feet, ranks fourth-longest in Indiana, rounding out a transportation base built as much for distribution and trucking yards as for passing traffic.
That volume of trucks and railcars moving through Vigo County doesn't go unnoticed. The FBI's 2024 Uniform Crime Report counted 237 motor vehicle thefts in Terre Haute, well above both the Indiana and national counts per 100,000 people. Terre Haute police saw that exposure up close before dawn on June 30, 2026, when officers found a trailer abandoned across the railroad tracks at North 14th and Ash streets; witness video led them to the truck that had been towing it, and a K9 from the Vigo County Sheriff's Office tracked down the driver, who was taken into custody on auto theft and other charges. A trucking yard or rail-served warehouse left unwatched overnight faces the same kind of theft, just without a train in the way to leave evidence behind.
Terre Haute's trucking terminals and rail-served warehouses don't get a break just because the trains have cleared the crossing. Sigma puts a live agent on every camera, not a recording that waits to be reviewed, so AI flagging someone on the lot after hours gets a response while they're still there: a talk-down over the site's speakers, then police if that's not enough, with the clip attached to the call. Gate Operations and Yard Operations extend that same coverage to drivers and trailers, checking IDs against your list and logging damage and seal condition on video.
On the record: Just before 3 a.m. on June 30, 2026, Terre Haute officers found a trailer abandoned across the railroad tracks at North 14th and Ash streets; witness video identified the truck that had towed it, and a Vigo County Sheriff's Office K9 tracked the driver to a nearby hiding spot. Donald Arthur, 56, of Terre Haute, was taken into custody on preliminary charges including auto theft and felony theft.

FAQ
Terre Haute monitoring questions
Can you watch a distribution yard near the I-70 and US 41 junction?
Yes. Every camera on that kind of site gets a live agent watching it, not a recording stored for later, so AI catching a person or vehicle after the loading docks close triggers a response right then: a talk-down through the speakers, and police if it goes further. That's true around the clock, including weekends and holidays.
Can your agents handle the gate for carriers picking up loads overnight?
That's part of Gate Operations. A driver who isn't on your schedule gets turned away before the gate ever opens; one who is gets greeted over the speakers, checked against the list, and let in remotely. Either way, there's a record of exactly who showed up and when.
Terre Haute doesn't have a Sigma office nearby. How does a site get set up?
Distance isn't the obstacle it might seem, since Sigma's agents work from your site's own internet feed rather than a nearby office. The one in-person step is the install, when a technician comes out to add cameras and speakers or connect ones your site already has. Everything after that runs on the power, internet and gate your site provides.
