Rail Temperature Monitoring

Understanding climate change & urban heat island effects and taking action

What is Rail Temperature Monitoring

Rail Temperature Monitoring refers to the continuous monitoring of the temperature of railroad tracks in order to prevent safety risks such as deformations or broken tracks. Rails are sensitive to temperature fluctuations, which can lead to structural problems, especially in extreme weather conditions.

The aim is to detect thermal stresses, deformations and material fatigue at an early stage and thus minimize safety risks in rail transport.

Our projects on this topic:

Copernicus Demonstrators - Mobility, Emergency and Infrastructures

A project to analyze and evaluate the technical feasibility and technical demonstration of 5 different proof of concepts using Copernicus data and services.

Space-based applications for traffic monitoring and management to solve problems of the main land transportation modes, road and rail, such as road congestion and the negative impact of extreme temperatures on railroad infrastructure.

Projects and references on the subject of geoanalytics:
