United Parcel Service or UPS, worldport in Louisville, USA is extremely impressive! 154 km conveyor belt, over 100 planes armada powered with ADBS (or is it ABDS? I forgot the name. It's a plane radar that send plane's coordinate to the ATC).
They also have sophisticated DWS (scanner) technology, supported with advance barcodes filled with packages' detail information--not only the address and postcode, but also weight! For all that they equipped advance tools like posisorter and other traffic-like system in the worldport factory.
They have 9,000 workers: pilots, flight trainers, meteorologists, marshallers, ground crews, sorters and drivers who never do left turn :-D --with their DIAD (gps-like tool).
This year-1907-erected company recorded 2,5 million packages in 24 hours. They're definitely doing serious business! Again, impressive!
Oh, I watched the documentary report on Superfactory National Geographic Channel (by cable). I'm simply an NGC and Discovery Channel addict.. ;-)
