filbaneovervåkning
Filbaneovervåkning refers to the systematic monitoring of railway tracks and associated infrastructure to ensure safe and efficient rail operations. The practice employs a combination of sensors, cameras, acoustic detectors, and data‑analysis algorithms that continuously assess the condition of rails, sleepers, ballast, and signalling equipment. By detecting defects such as cracks, misalignments, or foreign objects early, filbaneovervåkning allows maintenance crews to intervene before faults develop into accidents or service disruptions.
The evolution of filbaneovervåkning began in the late twentieth century as digital electronics and telecommunications advanced.
Key components include optical cam‑based defect detection, which captures micro‑fractures in rails, ultrasonic transit time measurements
Stakeholders benefit in multiple ways: rail operators experience reduced downtime and lower operating costs; regulatory agencies
