the need

Safety is a constant consideration for all aspects of the rail corridor, from the precise elevation of the rails to the condition of rail furniture and signage to encroaching foliage along the rail corridor. 

the challenge

Avoiding potential track malfunctions by inspecting and verifying its current state of repair as well as the conditions immediately surrounding the track, means inspecting thousands of miles of track, while avoiding risk to inspectors and disrupting train traffic schedules.  This is expensive, time-consuming, and dangerous.
