Remote yard monitoring in Corpus Christi
Live agents and AI cameras watch Corpus Christi truck yards, port-area warehouses and construction sites around the clock, run gates remotely and call police when something is wrong.
Local and live
Along the Ship Channel and I-37
Corpus Christi's economy runs on its deep-water port, the United States' largest gateway for crude oil exports, which held roughly 60 percent of the country's crude oil export market as of 2022 and moved 203.4 million tons of cargo in 2025. The Texas Comptroller counted $88.6 billion in trade through the port in 2024, almost all of it in mineral-fuel exports, and a channel-widening and deepening project finished in 2025 brought it to 54 feet deep and 530 feet wide. Trucks reach the port and the refineries and petrochemical plants along its banks on Interstate 37, US Highway 77 toward Victoria and Brownsville, and State Highway 44, which runs west to Laredo by way of I-69W, I-35 and US 83.
That concentration of fuel, chemicals and heavy equipment sits close to neighbourhoods and open yards that see their own share of property crime. FBI data for 2024 puts Corpus Christi's burglaries at 1,651, about 522 per 100,000 residents, and its motor vehicle thefts at 1,234, about 390 per 100,000 residents. In October 2023, thieves broke into a storage facility on South Padre Island Drive and made off with a trailer holding about $20,000 in audio and video equipment, one of several storage-unit break-ins police linked to the same location that week. For a yard or lot holding trailers, machinery or materials, an empty site overnight carries that same exposure.
Sigma gives a Corpus Christi yard a live set of eyes instead of a recording nobody checks until after the fact. Agents sit on every camera around the clock, every day of the year, and AI-based detection flags a person or vehicle the moment they show up after hours. Once an agent confirms it isn't a false alarm, they give a live, instant talk-down through the site's speakers and bring in police, fire services or your own contacts, then send along the clip and a written account of what happened.
On the record: FBI Uniform Crime Report data for 2024 shows Corpus Christi recorded 1,651 burglaries (about 522 per 100,000 residents) and 1,234 motor vehicle thefts (about 390 per 100,000 residents) that year. Source: HomeSnacks, Corpus Christi, TX Crime Report (FBI 2024 data), 2024

FAQ
Corpus Christi monitoring questions
Can you watch a yard near the Ship Channel refineries?
Yes. Agents keep every camera on a Corpus Christi site under live watch, day and night, all year. AI-based detection flags anyone moving through the yard after hours, an agent checks the footage, gives a live, instant talk-down through the site's speakers and calls police and your own contacts, with a video clip and report to follow.
Can agents handle trucks coming in and out of our yard?
Yes, through Gate Operations. Agents watch for each arrival, speak with the driver over the gate speakers, check them against your rules or pickup list, and open the gate from off site. Anyone not on the list is turned away and you're told right away, and the system keeps a time-stamped record of every entry and exit.
We're not near Ontario. What does getting set up in Corpus Christi involve?
Distance isn't an issue, since the monitoring itself runs over the internet. Sigma sends its own technicians to mount the cameras and speakers, and can tie into many compatible cameras already on a property. What's needed on your end is power, an internet connection and a gate.
How do I get started?
Request a free site assessment or call (209) 900-5884 ext 2. A Sigma specialist reviews your layout, existing cameras and risks, then recommends the right coverage, at no cost and with no obligation. Every quote costs less than a 24/7 guard.
