Agile Multi-sensor Platform LEONARDO: Evaluation of New Monitoring Technologies in an Operational Environment
摘要
Integrating new rail infrastructure measurement techniques requires a deep understanding of data and monitoring goals. The LEONARDO platform facilitates rapid testing of technologies, providing easy access to operational data for collaboration with industry and research partners. The platform focuses on acquiring data from infrastructure assets from on-track perspective within a ± 5-m radius, aiming to gather valuable information, including the possibility of detecting underground problems. Practical examples showcase that applications are working and are more than a one of test: this is due to the involvement of end-users and their persistence to use the information. The diverse data sources pose also intriguing challenges for in-depth research, making this setup appealing to researchers. Crucial to its success is the unobstructed access to operational infrastructure.
