Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of intelligent and information-based customs, and in particular to a system for intelligent allocation of customs sampling tasks based on GPS distance and sampling capacity. Background Technology

[0002] Customs sampling plays a crucial role in ensuring trade security, food safety, and environmental protection. It guarantees the compliance of imported and exported goods and plays an irreplaceable role in preventing the spread of harmful substances and protecting public health. However, in practice, customs sampling faces a series of challenges and pain points, as follows: The contradiction between insufficient manpower and heavy workload: With the booming development of global trade, customs business volume continues to grow, while the growth of human resources lags far behind the increase in business volume. This mismatch leads to enormous work pressure for customs officers. Especially in some busy ports, staff need to sample and inspect massive amounts of import and export goods, but limited human resources make it difficult for them to complete these tasks efficiently. In this situation, staff are often overworked, making it difficult to guarantee the quality and efficiency of sampling work, which may in turn affect the smoothness of the entire trade process.

[0003] Unfamiliarity with business processes: Customs sampling involves a series of complex procedures and regulations, which some staff may not be familiar with. This unfamiliarity can lead to operational errors or delays, thus reducing work efficiency. In certain special circumstances, such as when piloting a regular customs clearance model for weekends and holidays, staff unfamiliarity with the procedures may cause a decrease in clearance efficiency and even lead to public dissatisfaction and complaints.

[0004] Outdated Equipment: Currently, some customs sampling equipment may be relatively outdated and unable to meet the demands of modern, efficient operations. In some areas, sampling still relies on manual operation, which is not only inefficient but also prone to errors. Meanwhile, the application of intelligent inspection and sampling equipment is not widespread enough, limiting the improvement of customs work efficiency and the assurance of work quality.

[0005] Furthermore, despite the growing popularity of the concept of smart customs, sampling still relies on cumbersome manual operations. Given the diverse range of goods involved in customs trade, some of which have very short shelf lives, the time required for sampling directly determines the accuracy of test results and the speed of customs clearance. Therefore, improving sampling efficiency and reducing sampling time has become a pressing issue for customs operations.

[0006] There is an urgent need for an advanced system that can systematically prioritize customs sampling personnel for rapid sampling.

[0010] On March 3, 2025, a search was conducted on WIPO's website https: / / patentscope2.wipo.int / for the search term "Customs and sampling and positioning and distance and flow and task and allocation", but no relevant literature was found.

[0011] On March 3, 2025, a search was conducted on the website of the Japan Patent Office (https: / / www.j-platpat.inpit.go.jp / ) for the term "Customs and sampling and positioning and distance and flow and task and allocation," but no relevant literature was found.

[0012] It is completely different from the concept of this patent. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Purpose of the invention: To provide a more effective intelligent customs sampling task allocation system based on GPS distance and sampling capacity, the specific purpose of which is described in several substantive technical effects in the implementation section.

[0014] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A system for intelligent customs sampling task allocation based on GPS distance and sampling capacity, characterized in that: The customs sampling task allocation system includes an automatic task allocation center, which can obtain the real-time location of multiple samplers and the location of the target sample at any time. The location of the target sample includes the determination of the target customs and whether it needs to be inspected on board; when it does not need to be inspected on board, the GPS location of the goods is determined according to the customs map; when it needs to be inspected on board, the GPS location of the ship is determined. Simultaneously acquire the real-time GPS locations of multiple samplers, and compare each sampler's real-time GPS location with the location of the target sample; Select the sampler with the shortest distance and label him / her as sampler A; The required capacity for the sample volume and the available capacity for sampler A; If the required sample volume is less than the available capacity on sampler A's person; Sampling command issued; Sampler A takes a sample, and then the sampler's available capacity is reduced by the required sample volume, and the result is uploaded to the automatic task allocation center.

[0015] A further technical solution of the present invention includes determining whether the sample to be sampled needs to be protected from light, refrigerated or frozen. If it needs to be protected from light, refrigerated or frozen, then a sampler carrying or driving the relevant special equipment is given priority to take the sample.

[0016] A further technical solution of the present invention is that after sampler A takes a sample, he takes a picture of the sample on the Internet of Things terminal and uploads the sample photo, and clicks the sampling completion button; the sampling task is completed; the relevant sample is automatically added to the list to be inspected, and the list to be inspected is sent to the Customs Technology Center.

[0017] A further technical solution of the present invention is that the sampling task of the automatic task allocation center is a dynamic sampling requirement, that is, it is dynamically generated as the ship docks and the container is placed.

[0018] A further technical solution of the present invention is that when the sampler A assigned by the automatic task allocation center reports a special situation or takes leave, the sampling allocation result is manually canceled and reassigned.

[0019] A further technical solution of the present invention is that a large display screen is set up in the customs center. The large screen uses an electronic map as a carrier to display the location of each experimenter during their working hours in real time, as well as the location of the sample to be sampled in real time; this is used to dynamically control the entire sampling task.

[0020] A further technical solution of the present invention is that the evaluation method for sampled portable capacity is as follows: Empty-handed, carrying simple sampling bags, sampling suitcases, unmanned sampling vehicles or manned sampling vehicles The capacity is defined as 100%, and the maximum sampling volume is set to X liters. As the sampling work progresses, 100% is gradually occupied; the remaining volume is compared with the volume of the sample to be taken at any time.

[0021] A further technical solution of the present invention is that each sampling staff member who is on duty will be assigned a number during working hours.

[0022] A further technical solution of the present invention is that the technical center generates a technical list, which corresponds to the following laboratories: petrochemical testing laboratory, tropical aquatic product testing laboratory, cosmetic testing laboratory, food safety testing laboratory, industrial product testing laboratory, microbial testing laboratory, and vector-borne organism testing laboratory.

[0023] A further technical solution of the present invention is that the automatic task allocation center communicates with multiple samplers' dedicated mobile phones through the Internet of Things. The automatic task allocation center is also equipped with more than one supervisor authority. The supervisor authority can actively assign sampling or cancel a sampling task and then reissue it based on the sampler's feedback and leave request.

[0024] The present invention, which adopts the above technical solution, has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art: In view of the defect of the prior art, "the contradiction between insufficient manpower and large workload", the present system can quickly match and send the nearest manpower, and can balance the contradiction between insufficient manpower and large workload well enough.

[0025] Addressing the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as "unfamiliarity with business processes," this patent avoids the passing the buck among personnel. Tasks are assigned based on an algorithm, conforming to the optimal sampling rules.

[0026] Addressing the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as "outdated equipment," this patent enables automatic allocation, eliminating the chaos of manual management.

[0027] This patented system enables the systematic allocation of priority customs sampling personnel for rapid sampling. Attached Figure Description
