Abstract
The Indian Railways has one of the largest railway networks in the world, criss- crossing over 1,15,000 km in distance, all over India. However, with regard to reliability and passenger safety Indian Railways is not up to global standards. Among other factors, cracks developed on the rails due to absence of timely detection and the associated maintenance pose serious questions on the security of operation of rail transport. A recent study revealed that over 25% of the track length is in need of replacement due to the development of cracks on it. Manual detection of tracks is cumbersome and not fully effective owing to much time consumption and requirement of skilled technicians. This paper is aimed towards addressing the issue by developing an automatic railway track crack detection system with the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT). It is possible to collect massive amount of data for localization and tracking of Railway Fault Detection.
