Rail imagery intelligence

Map every mile of track

RailMap.ai turns cab, trolley and drone footage into a searchable, street-level record of your network — with signals, signage, switches, ballast and vegetation detected automatically on every pass.

Stop sending crews trackside to answer questions the imagery already knows.

Asset inventory

A geolocated register of signals, signage, posts, switches and structures, rebuilt on every pass.

Defect detection

Ballast loss, fastening wear and surface damage surfaced as ranked work items with confidence scores.

Clearance & vegetation

Encroachment into the clearance envelope measured from imagery and point cloud, season over season.

Crossing safety

Every level crossing photographed, signage legibility checked, sightlines evidenced for audits.

How it works

Capture once, answer everything

01

Capture

Cab-mounted, trolley or drone cameras record the corridor at line speed. No possession required.

02

Align

Frames are positioned against your linear referencing, so every image carries a line and mile.

03

Extract

Models detect assets and conditions, then compare each pass to the last for change detection.

04

Use

Browse in the map, push work items to your maintenance system, or pull everything through the API.

Evidence for every decision

Each detection links back to the frame it came from, with capture date, camera and confidence. Auditors see the photo, planners see the trend, and nobody argues about whether the defect was there in March.

  • Side-by-side comparison between any two passes
  • Work items exported to your EAM with imagery attached
  • Milepost-accurate positions against your own referencing
  • Retention and access rules set per network and per team
