Summary:The world's cargo is transported in shipping containers. Historically, there has been little visibility into cargo once it goes inside a container. Breakable cargo, such as glass, is sometimes damaged in shipping. Sensors can be used to measure shocks experienced by the container in transit. The present disclosure presents systems and methods for analyzing such shocks into shock clusters and outliers. The present disclosure also proposes a way to assign probable cause to the shocks in each cluster based on prior knowledge of shock causes. The nature of shock data presents nuances that contribute to the uniqueness of the example implementations herein.
