Rail LiDAR & 360 Video Mapping
Reality IMT’s Rail LiDAR Services can optimize your infrastructure asset documentation while spending minimum time on the track. Our Hi-rail Mapping System is composed of UHD 360 Degree Camera with GPS, LiDAR at 700,000 measurements per second, Dual GPS and Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). Hundreds of Miles can be mapped in a single pass.
Bring hundreds of miles of track onto your desktop
Vehicle Based Rail As-built Survey can capture all dimensions and geometry of above ground assets along the entire track’s right of way
with high positional accuracy.

This short video shows a sample LiDAR data collected on a railway at track speed. The point cloud data was then classified based on ground, vegetation, and track. Once data is classified, features can be extracted based on location and dimensions
In addition to LiDAR, Reality IMT deploys a 360 degree GPS-video to visually document linear assets and corridors. The railroad industry has been benefiting tremendously from LiDAR and 360 video surveys since the ability to access the tracks is limited due to continuous traffic flow. Data collected from the LiDAR and camera can be done a SINGLE PASS without disrupting track time. In addition, the amount of data collected, far exceeds what a conventional survey can produce and meets the required accuracy by FRA.
