Improved Railway Infrastructure with Survey-Grade Accuracy
The digitalisation of rail through satellite technology offers extensive opportunities that provide scalable solutions for accurate railway positioning. This improves rail safety, security, and operational effectiveness as well as improved user experience for passengers and freight customers.
High Accuracy GNSS combined with other sensors can meet the high demands on the positioning of train control. Availability, reliability and integrity are extremely important.
Benefits of GNSS in rail applications:
- Increased situational awareness for train safety and maintenance crews.
- Equipment location awareness.
- Prevention of collisions, derailments, and rail switch errors.
- Increased capacity and efficiency for all rail users.
- Dependable schedule.
- Automated track surveys and inspections.
- Time synchronisation for communication systems.
