On-Demand, Custom Reporting

Holland® provides on-demand custom reporting services for any of the data it manages. Pre-programmed or on-demand custom reports can be used to identify troublesome areas and assist in maintenance planning and track management. For example, Holland® can query a database to:

• Identify and locate areas of wide gauge, high wear, and locations in which rail or track is nearing or exceeding maintenance or condemning limits.

• Locate and inventory all rail profile sections in use on a railroad, using customizable wear class definitions.

• Identify and locate combinations of conditions that are not readily recognizable from strip charts, but can impact operating or maintenance requirements.

• Determine the length and degree of each measured curve and spiral, or each section of tangent track.

• Overlay data from previous measurements to identify wear trends and predict maintenance requirements.

 Sample reports include:

• Multi-run Wear Chart - showing gauge and rail wear.

• Multi-run Wear Chart - showing combined rail wear, rail type and wear classification.

• Mutli-run Rail Profile Chart - showing rail wear over a number of test runs with original rail profile.

• Rail Wear Trend Chart - showing expected rail replacement date based on condemning limit and wear rates to date over a number of test runs.

• Segment Performance Chart - shows annual rail wear on curves over a number of test runs.

• Rail Inventory Table - shows rail inventory in-track and to customer developed wear classifications.

• Tabular Wear Trend Chart - by time shows wear classifications by segments in tabular format.

On-demand reports can be generated from processed data prior to maintenance activities. They can be customized to meet a railroad’s specific needs, and can be delivered by electronic file or print out.
