Latest NewsAssetWatch - Total Monitoring Solution
AssetWatch is the first system to offer a complete real-time monitoring solution for the railway industry - from the trackside asset’s sensors directly to the maintainer’s mobile and laptop.
Developed alongside railway maintainers, AssetWatch continuously monitors and envelopes all asset types, allowing any user to view live condition information via the Internet and receive alert messages direct to their mobile phone or email.
Once AssetWatch’s server and trackside units are installed to monitor one asset type, others may be added very simply and economically.
AssetWatch - available today - is entirely consistent with Network Rail’s new vision for an ‘Intelligent Infrastructure’ whose assets inform the maintainer of any required action.
AssetWatch utilises advanced monitoring technology to meet strategic objectives of reducing train delays and maintenance costs.
