Technology

DRONE SURVEY

LIDAR SURVEY

DESIGN

Railway & Metro Assets

  1. Railway track inspection
  2. Overhead cable inspection
  3. Component deformation inspection (wooden sleepers, driven rails, etc.)
  4. Elevated structures inspection
  5. Track work monitoring

Railway & Metro ecosystem

  1. Rail bridge inspection
  2. Landslide on sloped terrain surveying
  3. Track perimeter inspection
  4. Vegetation perimeter inspection
Solutions

Defect identification

  1. 1. Localization of structural cracks and failures
  2. Quality control measurement (rail track cross section, deformation, etc.)

Close-up inspection

  1. High voltage electric cables anomalies inspection
  2. Detailed analysis of elevated structure (pylons, tower, etc.)

Mapping

  1. Accurate digital elevation modeling (DEM) for track design and planning
  2. Scaled map generation for rail network planning

High resolution imagery

  1. Aerial visual images of off-track ecosystem (drainage, vegetation, etc.)
  2. Integrity inspection of rail assets (building, bridge, stations, etc.)

Thermal inspection

  1. Inspection of heat related components (switch points, traction substation, etc.)
  2. Overhead lines monitoring for detection of failures through heat change
Benefits

Safety

  1. Increase personnel safety with- less personnel exposeure to trackside work
  2. Operational safety improvement – less collision risk of rail maintenance vehicles with commercial trains

Reporting

  1. Fast and accurate data sets – instant inspection reporting to remotely located surveyor
  2. Digitized workable data – interactive data for predictive maintenance planning

Cost

  1. Mobilization cost saving of inspection vehicles – less train wagon inspection
  2. Reduction of track possessions – less planning cost and no service disruptions

Resources

  1. Optimization of personnel planning and mobilization
  2. Digital information support for ground crew advanced equipment planning
