The Operational Problem
Railway maintenance needs continuous evidence, not only periodic inspection.
- Critical railway assets are distributed across stations, signalling rooms and trackside infrastructure.
- Periodic inspection may not reveal short-duration anomalies or gradual parameter drift.
- Fault assessment often depends on physical inspection and fragmented data.
- Maintenance teams need historical trends, alarms and asset context before travelling to site.
