Remote yard monitoring in La Porte

Local and live

Between Barbours Cut, Bayport and the Battleground district

La Porte sits about 25 miles east of Houston on the Houston Ship Channel, bounded by the Barbours Cut container terminal to the north, Galveston Bay to the east and the Bayport container terminal to the south. The city's own Bayport and Battleground industrial districts run along its west and north sides, lined with petrochemical plants, and more than 130 trucking lines serve the area with routes across the US, Canada and Mexico. The 2.6-mile Fred Hartman Bridge carries State Highway 146 over the Ship Channel to Baytown, and State Highway 225, the La Porte Freeway, ends here after running in from Houston.

FBI data for 2024 recorded 39 motor vehicle thefts in La Porte, equal to about 104 for every 100,000 residents, and 34 burglaries, equal to about 91 for every 100,000 residents, both well below the Texas and national figures. Even so, a city built around two container terminals and a run of petrochemical plants still means loaded trailers and parked equipment sitting outside a fence line once the day shift leaves, and a quiet crime count doesn't make that exposure disappear.

Sigma watches a La Porte yard with every camera live at once, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including nights, weekends and holidays. AI person and vehicle detection flags movement along the fence line or around parked trailers, an agent checks the footage, gives a live, instant talk-down through the site's speakers and brings in police and your contacts. Yard Operations adds truck and trailer logs, damage inspections and visual seal checks on video for outbound loads.
