ProRail is a Dutch government organization that is responsible for the maintenance and extensions of the national railway network infrastructure and traffic control.
Using our Control&Monitoring framework – Maplese, we implemented several projects to improve train schedule predictability.
- Railroad switch monitoring to secure their operational state in the winter
- Railroad crossing, measuring closing times and the impact along tracks of new train schedules
- Weather stations to measure local in comparison to predicted weather
With this project, ProRail gained insights they were unable to before. How much time did they block the public road network? Are there barriers that close so quickly they could hit a passer-by? Are there barriers that close so slowly that they could block a vehicle on the railroad?
