Slash Operational Expenses
Transformative Use Cases for Your Network
Rail Safety and Infrastructure Integrity (Positive Train Control)
CHALLENGE
Ensuring safe separation, reliably identifying track switches, and monitoring rail integrity requires absolute positioning confidence.
SKYLARK SOLUTION
Provides the real-time, high-integrity location data needed for next-generation Collision Avoidance and Train Protection Systems. Achieve track-level accuracy to enforce speed restrictions and predict safe braking distances.
Container Tracking and Yard Automation (Logistics)
CHALLENGE
Efficiently locating and sorting containers across rail yards relies heavily on manual intervention or expensive, fixed infrastructure.
SKYLARK SOLUTION
Integrate Skylark into asset trackers to achieve precise slot verification and automated inventory management. Enable machinery to automatically place and retrieve containers with sub-meter precision, optimizing throughput.
High-Rail Maintenance and Surveying (Asset Management)
CHALLENGE
Track geometry assessment, ballast profiling, and overhead line equipment (OLE) surveying are historically slow and labor-intensive.
SKYLARK SOLUTION
Integrating Skylark into MOW vehicles (tampers, high-rail trucks) allows for continuous, centimeter-accurate track surveying. This facilitates predictive maintenance and precise automated machine guidance, significantly reducing downtime and cost.
Personnel Safety and Protection (Worker Welfare)
CHALLENGE
Protecting trackside workers from oncoming traffic is a paramount safety concern, often reliant on fallible communication or visual markers.
SKYLARK SOLUTION
Equip workers with low-power, Skylark-enabled personnel safety devices to establish precise, geofenced safety zones. The system reliably alerts workers and train crews when a safety breach is imminent, leveraging absolute position data.
