For maximizing the track availability, turnouts are the ideal gateway for the continuous sensor-based collection of condition data. Since turnouts are not only the point where tracks converge or diverge but also a hub for various signalling and control systems, the information content of the data collected here is especially high.
Transformational project for KiwiRail. The new, feature-rich Iconis system will dramatically improve the way KiwiRail operates its network.
