Sinocloud Wisdom was awarded the National Civil Aviation Science and Technology Progress Prize for the Pudong International Airport Smart Baggage System.
Sinocloud Wisdom received the 2022 Civil Aviation Science and Technology Progress Award (Second-Class Prize). This recognition honors its groundbreaking "Integrated Intelligent Inspection and Tracking System for Inbound Passenger Baggage at International Hub Airports," a collaborative project with Shanghai Pudong International Airport, Pudong Airport Customs, and other industry leaders. This accolade, issued by the China Air Transport Association (CATA) under the guidance of the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), underscores the company’s pivotal role in advancing smart aviation infrastructure.
Key Innovations and Impact
The award-winning system integrates AI, IoT, and big data analytics to address critical challenges in baggage tracking, risk detection, and multi-agency coordination (e.g., customs, security, and ground services). By establishing a unified data platform, it achieves real-time luggage monitoring, reduces manual inspections, and enhances contraband detection accuracy by over 30%.
At Shanghai Pudong International Airport, China’s third-largest international hub, the technology has slashed passenger clearance times from over an hour to under 35 minutes, aligning with the national "Smart Port" initiative outlined in the 14th Five-Year Plan Nationwide Deployment and Future Goals.
Since its implementation, the system has been replicated at Harbin International Airport, Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport, and Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport, with plans for expansion to Yantai Penglai International Airport.
Sinocloud Wisdom’s CTO reaffirmed the company’s commitment to advancing aviation digitization through AI and IoT innovations, supporting China’s ‘Four-Type Airports’ vision while enhancing national security and passenger convenience.
