Siemens Rail Automation launched a new software, RailFusion, that monitors and analyses data points across an entire railway infrastructure, including onboard and wayside assets such as road crossings and end-of-train devices. The new solution is designed to turn big data into intelligence by intuitively monitoring and analysing railroad infrastructure to improve system operations and safety.
RailFusion allows devices located on rail infrastructure to communicate with one another to remotely determine the status and effectiveness of maintenance activities, road crossings and locomotive operation. Operators are provided with insights into activity across an entire railway as the system remotely monitors and captures data from both Siemens and third-party devices located on the infrastructure.
By using the captured data, the software can identify trends to help railways better plan operations specific to their needs and fix assets.
