Summary

Condition based monitoring is becoming an increasingly utilised method for monitoring track and rolling stock assets in the rail industry. There is a growing need to monitor such systems remotely and receive relevant and timely condition updates.

This paper assumes a system in which there are several deployments of monitoring equipment in different locations, potentially large distances apart. To facilitate timely data access, a need for a system to transmit, store, process and present this data in a quick and efficient way is apparent.

After establishing some deficiencies in existing designs, a system is proposed in which all processing and storage is completed in a distributed, cloud based system, and communication with the system is achieved with lightweight, widely used protocols. Through deployment of a sample system, this study determines that the proposed architecture can be successfully implemented and can add value to current and future condition based monitoring devices on railway networks.
