Using as‑built data for monitoring
purposes can be streamlined
to eliminate manual work
and reduce the likelihood of
errors. Any manual editing
or calculations of as-built
survey data prior to
using the data for a rail
monitoring project can
be avoided.

The track file from T4D can be simply exported
as a result of rail surveying; it contains
comprehensive track information, which is used
for further calculations and processes to deliver
unique rail monitoring results. This optimized
workflow allows you to export the as-built data
with one click and then, with another, import it
into the software.
Berchtold highlighted the value-add of
accessible data to their monitoring projects to
GEOGRID AG, saying, "I especially like the way
data and access can be shared through the
T4D web interface with customers. It makes
no difference if it's real-time automated or
semi-automated monitoring, customers will
always have access to the data and of course,
be informed as soon as something changes."
Monitoring systems provide automated alarms
that trigger an email or other notification when
movement exceeds movement thresholds
determined by the customer. They can then
take immediate action as the information is
easily understood.
"With a spreadsheet, we were the only ones
who really understood what was happening;
it wasn't very visual. Now with T4D Rail, we can
easily share that knowledge in a clear and easily
digestible format," said Berchtold.
