Abstract: Navigating a transportation network by receiving an equipment identifier, querying a section of interest database to obtain at least one section of interest associated, accessing geolocation data from one or more geolocation sensors, querying a one section of interest using geolocation data to identify a next section of interest. With geolocation data, calculating at least one of a time to a next section of interest or a distance to a next section of interest, and determining that a reduction in speed is required, where a reduced speed is an amount of speed by which the speed must be reduced in order for the equipment to achieve a target speed associated with the next section of interest, and providing an alert configured to escalate to the user interface.

Abstract: An automated track inspection vehicle for inspecting track for anomalies includes a self-propelled car equipped with cameras for creating images of the track. A driver and inspector visually inspect the track and right-of-way through a window in the vehicle. Additionally, the images from the cameras are viewed by an inspector on a video terminal to detect anomalies. When anomalies are detected by the driver, inspector, or various redundant detection systems, a signal is provided to store the video data for later review by an analyst. The analyst will review the stored video data to confirm the presence of an anomaly and generate a track inspection report identifying at least the type and location of anomaly and the required remedial action.
