Railway Track Geometry
Full track geometry, chord-based and space curveMore than 150 railway customers served since 1995.
Gauge, Gauge Rate Change, Rail Cant Angle
Crosslevel, Warp, Twist, Surface, Runoff, Dip, Alignment
Degree of Curvature, Superelevation, Unbalance
More than 50 track geometry channels with varying wavelengths or chord lengths

Rail Profile Geometry
Rail profile geometry is collected along with
track geometry and reprocessed with
Holland’s Rangecam software.
Multiple rail profile measurement to generate
trend analyses and make rail wear life
predictions
Total rail head wear and head loss %

Operation Modes
Attended
Preferred by track geometry personnel
Real-time visualization and reporting
Located measurements and defects by territory mile/kilometer post and GPS
Heads-Up
Used by any hi-rail operator.
Only pre-defined defects are visualized through
map view, visual and audible alert.
Real-time vehicle view on the map with respect to defect location.
Ideal for complimenting scheduled FRA 213 manual track inspection and other inspection technologies
Unattended (Autonomous)
Used by any hi-rail operator.
Continuous testing and autonomous operation with located measurements and defects delivered to the railroad.
