Computer-aided evaluation of the railway track geometry on the basis of satellite measurements
PublicationIn recent years, all over the world there has been a period of intensive development of GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) measurement techniques and their extension for the purpose of their applications in the field of surveying and navigation. Moreover, in many countries a rising trend in the development of rail transportation systems has been noticed. In this paper, a method of railway track geometry assessment based...

Preparatory Railway Track Geometry Estimation Based on GNSS and IMU Systems
PublicationThe article discusses an important issue of railway line construction and maintenance, which fundamentally is the verification of geometric parameters of the railway track. For this purpose, mobile measurements have been performed using a measuring platform with two properly arranged GNSS receivers, which made it possible to determine the base vector of the platform. The measuring functionality of the system was extended by IMU....

Analyzing the Geometry of the Turnouts and Their Adjustment Basing on the Tacheometer Measurements
PublicationThe article presents the results of tacheometric measurements of a station throat, as well as the method of data preparation and analysis. The calculations covered the verification of the geometry and the location of railway turnouts and crossings. The analyses were performed for the selected parameters of the turnout geometry, including their lengths and track gauge in main sections. In addition, the data were analyzed to confirm...

Verification of Satellite Railway Track Position Measurements Making Use of Standard Co-Ordinate Determination Techniques
PublicationThe article presents the results of satellite railway track position measurements performed by a multidisciplinary research team, the members of which represented Gdansk University of Technology and Gdynia Maritime University. Measuring methods are described which were used for reconstructing the railway track axis position and diagnosing railway track geometry deformations. As well as that, the description of the novel method...

Innovative mobile method to determine railway track axis position in global coordinate system using position measurements performed with GNSS and fixed base of the measuring vehicle
PublicationThe shape of the railway track axis and its position in the global coordinate system are essential when defining design parameters of the railway. Correct reconstruction of these quantities is vital for both verifying the compliance of real track parameters with the design and for diagnosing, as all track deformations can also be defined as deviations of real parameters from their design values. The measurements of quantities related...

A Method for Determination and Compensation of a Cant Influence in a Track Centerline Identification Using GNSS Methods and Inertial Measurement
PublicationAt present, the problem of rail routes reconstruction in a global reference system is increasingly important. This issue is called Absolute Track Geometry, and its essence is the determination of the axis of railway tracks in the form of Cartesian coordinates of a global or local coordinate system. To obtain such a representation of the track centerline, the measurement methods are developed in many countries mostly by the using...

Experimental bases for the rail track surface damage detection system
PublicationA diagnosis of rail surface is generally based on the classical method of direct assessment and track geometry measurements. Identification and qualification of inequality and damage on the surface rails is depend on the skills and experience person who conducting inspection. In times of increasing exploitation of railways, infrastructure managers decide to use systems supporting the assessment of technical condition of the railways....
