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. Move data from the track to the office seamlessly 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. 2 5 ways to keep rail monitoring projects on track 5
