Inse Rail, with the support of the CDTI (Centro para el Desarrollo Tecnológico Industrial), launches a new innovation project: GALIBRAIL.
The final goal of the GALIBRAIL project is to design and develop a computerized system to calculate and analyze railway gages that takes all of the elements of a railway line, its environment and rolling stock into consideration, and applies new algorithms to calculate and dimension the maximum measurements to validate the traffic conditions in the current real situation.
Gage calculation is a process that verifies that there is sufficient space between the rolling stock and the infrastructure on which it will operate, to ensure the safety of rail traffic by preventing collisions between trains running on adjacent tracks or with the infrastructure itself, always providing a minimum margin of safety.
Since gage calculation is the basic pillar for developing new rail corridors, diversifying the operation of existing ones, and enabling interoperability in international traffic, the need for this previously non-existent automated calculation system to address this aspect is now more necessary than ever, and will represent a significant competitive advantage for Inse Rail when this innovation project is successfully completed.
