Lithuanian Railways provides freight services for half of all the goods transported in the country. The state-owned organisation needed a digital solution to deliver live video surveillance to enhance operational safety, and replace traditional communication and record-keeping tools to improve efficiency.
The solution needed to be rugged enough to accommodate a busy, round-the-clock freight operations schedule. The railway network covers nearly 2,000km of track. Cargo ranging from
oil to chemicals and automobiles is regularly transported through the
Baltic States between Belarus and Russia, providing a major source of
revenue for Lithuania.
Getac offers a solution
A fully-rugged Getac F110 was installed on each locomotive, alongside two Havis vehicle docks and four cameras to provide a real-time video feed, giving the operator complete situational awareness at all times. The F110 is also used to write and transmit documents used in the freight business.
Delivering on safety and efficiency
Used in conjunction with a video surveillance system tailor-made by the system integrator FIMA, the Getac F110 provides greater work precision and drastically reduces the chance of accidents. Productivity is boosted, with the multifunctional tablet replacing traditional pen and paper.
“We wanted to have the newest technology in these trains, so we chose Getac,” Lithuanian Railways Chief Specialist Grigory Zhukovsky said.
“We want to digitise the process because pen-and-paper is not for us anymore in the modern age.”
