Utilizing Information Technologies to Organize a Railway Junction Survey

The article deals with the analysis of scientific works devoted to the problem of the methodology for conducting a pre-project survey of the work of railway junctions. In many cases, the inspection of the junction requires trips on business trips and has a significant limitation on the duration of the implementation, allocated to human and material resources. Therefore, the effectiveness of the pre-project survey essentially depends on the correct organization of work and the establishment of interaction between representatives of the developer and the customer's specialists. Thus, the lack of a unified approach to the survey of railway systems leads to a formal description of the requirements for automated systems in the terms of reference for their development. Consequently, the lack of a unified approach affects further additional costs of funds and time at the stages of developing work projects and implementing the automated control system on the railway.
