The goal of the Ranglo project is to deliver a data integration and predictive analytics service for rail freight in the UK based on near real-time tracking of railcars. The software platform connects to existing internal & external data sources to allow for data exchange and integration between the different rail freight stakeholders. The tracking is performed by a Satellite-IoT and multi-constellation GNSS device that is installed directly into railcars and can be connected to multiple sensors depending on the role of the railcar. The platform is designed to allow for end-to-end paperless transactions between the different stakeholders and increase the efficiency of rail freight, as well as enable usage-based maintenance.
