Rail Crossing Information Systems with Predictive Analytics

The Florida Department of Transportation is seeking information from prospective vendors regarding their ability to supply rail crossing information systems with predictive analytics. The system should be able to detect train presence, direction, and speed using acoustic sensors. The intended use of the system is to provide real-time and historical train presence data to assist first responders in planning alternative routes in case of blockage by a train. The system should be scalable and deployable along interconnected arterials affected by at-grade rail operations. • The system must be able to provide real-time and historical train presence data • The system must be able to detect train direction and speed • The system must be scalable and deployable along interconnected arterials • The system must be able to provide data to first responders and road users through the FL511 app and other dissemination means • The system must be able to integrate with existing systems and infrastructure
