An AI enabled IoT sensor to monitor railway tracks, identify earthworks failures 90% faster and reduce dangerous on-track person-hours

Osprey是一家总部位于英国的智能基础设施中小企业，其核心项目团队由丹尼尔·斯科特（技术主管）和彼得·斯科特（产品负责人/运营总监）组成。山体滑坡和其他山体滑坡故障每年造成的直接和间接成本对铁路乘客和列车的安全风险以及经济影响都很大。及早发现这些故障对铁路安全至关重要。为此，Osprey正在开发Geo-Alarm，这是一种易于部署且具有成本效益的物联网传感器，可为岩土工程活动提供快速警报。该项目直接响应了Network Rail的挑战声明：“通过列车司机以外的方式检测资产故障”，并为现有解决方案提供了一种替代方案，该解决方案更具成本效益，更易于部署，对环境的影响更小，不易损坏，更易于维护。

Osprey is a UK-based smart infrastructure SME with a core project team of Daniel Scott (Technical Lead) and Peter Scott (Product Owner/Operations Director).The annual direct and indirect costs of landslides and other earthwork failures are significant in terms of safety risks for rail passengers and trains as well as economic implications. Identifying these failures early is critical to rail safety. To this end, Osprey is developing Geo-Alarm, an IoT sensor that is easy and cost-effective to deploy and provides rapid alert to geotechnical activity. This project directly responds to Network Rail's Challenge Statement: "Detection of asset failure by means other than train drivers" and offers an alternative to existing solutions that is more cost effective, easier to deploy, has lower environmental impact, is less prone to damage, and easier to maintain.
