Methods and systems for managing temporary storage in warehouses are disclosed herein. An example method includes receiving a first electronic notification that items of a shipment are to be stored in temporary locations in a warehouse; in response to the first notification, automatically redirecting location information determined electronically based on asset tags affixed to the items from a warehouse management system to a temporary storage management system as the items are stored in the temporary locations; receiving a second electronic notification that the items are to be moved from the temporary locations to final locations; and in response to the second notification, automatically communicating the redirected location information to enable the warehouse worker to locate the items at the temporary locations based on the redirected location information and store them at the final locations, the final locations identified for the warehouse worker by the warehouse management system.

Systems and methods for lost asset management using photo-matching are disclosed herein. An example method includes capturing a lost asset image corresponding to a lost asset, and generating, by a feature extractor model, a lost asset descriptor that represents features of the lost asset image. The example method also includes storing the lost asset descriptor and the lost asset image in an asset database that includes known asset descriptors, and performing, by a visual search engine, a nearest neighbor search within the asset database to determine a respective metric distance between the lost asset descriptor and the known asset descriptors. The example method also includes determining, by the visual search engine, a ranked list of known assets corresponding to the lost asset, and displaying, at a user interface, the ranked list of known assets for viewing by a user.
