In order to track trains in real-time, the CRIS and Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) collaborated on the Real Time Train Information System (RTIS) project.
Indian railways will now focus on adopting Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Quantum Computing technology for their modernization, as the plans to make use of the most recent inventions and technologies for its extensive national transformation.
Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw stressed the significance of adopting cutting-edge technology to develop the nation’s transportation infrastructure while speaking at a technical conference for the Ministry of Railways. He also placed a strong emphasis on looking into the potential for integrating data analytics in order to transform the railway network.
According to Vaishnaw, “Government is clear in its objective for clear focus, intent, adaptability, open-mindedness, and a feeling of purpose to do things that are Desh Ke Hit Mein aur Railways Ke Hit Mein.
The conference will be held at the National Rail Museum’s Centre for Railway Information System (CRIS) in New Delhi. Vaishanw attended the conference together with other top railroad board officers, divisional and zonal railroads, and business associates.
In order to track trains in real-time, the CRIS and Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) collaborated on the Real Time Train Information System (RTIS) project.
The passenger’s and the national transporter’s search for the trains will be facilitated by this. Also, the railways are putting IoT gadgets based on satcom and satnav in the trains.
For the varied activities of the Indian Railways, the use of data analytics will be essential and advantageous. The use of data analytics will improve maintenance, improve the efficiency of train timetables, and reduce operational costs.
By using data analysis to forecast demand for trains and make plans for enough resources, the railways can avoid delays and congestion. It will be essential to enhancing the passenger experience by providing better services.
In order to ensure efficient and seamless transportation services, the railways will be able to identify the busiest routes using technology and organize multimodal transit more effectively.
