Track inspections require accurate, accessible, and up-to-date data. With more networks moving toward digital workflows, LiDAR platforms are playing a larger role in how maintenance inspections are planned and delivered.

A good LiDAR analytics platform should allow users to view and interact with spatial data without needing specialist training. It should support critical inspection workflows and provide reliable and repeatable measurements directly from LiDAR point clouds. Just as importantly, it should align with historical maintenance records and make sharing information with others easy.

At Agonics, we’ve developed XERRA to meet the specific needs of railway maintainers that wish to automate inspections and reduce time spent in the danger zone. Built to handle high resolution LiDAR and imagery data from mobile laser scanning systems, XERRA gives rail engineers the tools they need to inspect infrastructure, validate clearances, and support compliance in one browser-based system — all without leaving their desk.

The result? Safer track inspections and more certainty that maintenance intervals can be achieved with existing resources.
