🚆 PRO-RIM: Precision on Track – A New EU-Funded Project Kicks Off, with ANavS Driving Innovation in Railway Infrastructure Maintenance!

🟠 How can railway maintenance activities be precisely located and reliably documented – even under challenging conditions? ➡️ This is exactly where PRO-RIM comes in! ➡️ The new EU-funded project aims to develop an intelligent, highly accurate and robust positioning solution for railway infrastructure maintenance.

🟠 The technological foundation is our proven A-ROX mPOM system, which will be further developed and enhanced as part of the project.

👉 What makes PRO-RIM special?
🔵 Precision You Can Rely On: GNSS, inertial sensors and odometry are combined with Galileo’s High Accuracy Service (HAS) to enable highly accurate positioning.
🔵 Reliability Even Under Challenging Conditions: Galileo OSNMA for navigation message authentication, adaptive switching between RTK and PPP, and positioning integrity monitoring will enhance the robustness and trustworthiness of the positioning solution.
🔵 Every Meter Counts: By integrating digital railway maps, maintenance activities can be precisely linked to specific tracks and kilometre positions, enabling accurate and traceable documentation.
🔵 From Development to the Tracks: Five prototypes will be tested on railway maintenance machines under real-world operating conditions.

🚀 The Green Light Is On! ➡️ The successful kick-off meeting on 4 November 2026 marked an important milestone, with EUSPA confirming authorisation to begin project activities.

We look forward to making an important contribution to the digitalisation and future of railway infrastructure maintenance through PRO-RIM!
