Examples are disclosed that relate to automated tracking of aircraft turnaround. One example provides a method, comprising obtaining object classification data for a plurality of image frames, the object classification data comprising location data for a fuselage of the aircraft and location data for a loadable object, determining a first distance between the fuselage and the loadable object in a first frame of the plurality of image frames, and determining a second distance between the fuselage and the loadable object in a second, later frame of the plurality of image frames. The method further comprises determining that the loadable object is being loaded based at least on the second distance being less than the first distance, or determining that the loadable object is being unloaded based at least on the second distance being greater than the first distance, and outputting the determination.
