Surveying improves rail safety and efficiency and minimise disruptions
Help increase railway efficiency and safety
Across the rail lifecycle, surveyors help ensure the safety, reliability and sustainability of railway infrastructure. By delivering accurate topographical data, locating and mapping underground utilities and preparing data, surveyors lay the foundation for efficient construction. During construction, they enable confidence in quality and accuracy by providing precise stakeout, conducting quality control and as-built surveys, measuring track geometry, inspecting railway ballast and monitoring the rail track condition. Through documenting and mapping rail assets in 3D and extracting information, surveyors also enable the efficient and safe operation and maintenance of railways.
Construction lifecycle phases
Design & Capture
Create an accurate digital twin for a new or existing railway whilst reducing time on site to an absolute minimum. Conduct assessment and analysis without needing continuous access.

In your own words
Reduce time on the track, improve safety
“In this project, with mobile mapping, we were able to reduce man hours on the track as well as improve the overall safety for the rail team.”
Deliver the highest accuracy
“As this is a rail environment control survey, requiring a very high level of accuracy, we opted straight away for the TS60 to undertake all traversing and control point observations.”
Minimise network disruption
"Having the capability to scan has allowed us to carry out surveys in complex environments such as rail corridors and freeways without the need for track or lane closures, providing considerable efficiencies to clients."
Best quality design
“Thanks to the Leica Geosystems products, our project goals are clear, realistic, feasible and designed to complete the project on schedule with high-quality standards.”
No delays thanks to a quick response
"We provide innovative solutions working closely with Leica Geosystems and wider Hexagon team. They have responded promptly to any issues, including out of hours and have saved the project from the costs of any delays to trains.”
Increase safety and efficiency with monitoring
“Automating monitoring also means it is a safer solution than conducting monitoring during the day and night – it means our personnel do not have to enter the rail corridor.”
Fit-for-purpose rail workflow
“By adopting Leica Captivate software technology, we can provide Network Rail with fast and accurate data realisation, avoid costly returns, and save them time and effort whilst reducing their risks.”
Know where assets and utilities are located
“Due to the precise locating abilities of these instruments, we were able to inform our designers in the early stages of the project exactly where the utilities were located so they could incorporate this new information in the metro design.”
Capture data from a safe distance
“With Leica Pegasus:Backpack, every spot in the rail yard was reachable. We also did not have to implement extra safety measures since we did nothigh-risknter high-risks areas: we could simply capture the data from a safe distance.”
