Track and gauge geometry measurements – the present and future

The acts, regulations and technical instructions in force imply the obligation of regular monitoring of the railroad condition at the railroad management institutions. This monitoring consists of several types of measurements, most important of which – railroad surface diagnostics – covers the assessment of the technical condition of tracks by measuring the key parameters specifying the rail track position. This paper presents the currently applied solutions, new technologies and potential directions of measurement method development.
