Download iCal FileThe debut presentation of the UTC online seminar series addresses a practice to better address how to keep railroad tracks that serve freight, passenger, and transit in operational condition.
To ensure safe and efficient operations, railroads and rail transit agencies perform frequent track inspections, some of which generate substantial amounts of track health data using automated platforms. This seminar will cover the use of such datasets and how data science and machine learning can be leveraged to quantify track health, track strength, and its resistance to axial rail buckling – with the objective of increasing safety and state of good repair.
