2. PLAN

• Necessity of the satellite technologies adoption
• Spheres of application of navigation systems
• Reasons of preference of GLONASS location system to GPS

3. SATTELITE TECHNOLOGIES

Global Positioning
System (GPS)
GLONASS

4. REASONS TO USE LOCATION SYSTEMS AT RAILWAYS

• Monitoring the trains
• Providing the security
• Repairing
• Maintenance in the “break on
the track”
• Adopting the logistics methods

5. MONITORING THE TRAINS

• having an access to any train
location
• to get the dislocation and
motion parameters of a
rolling-stock
• handling the traffic process
• to ensure the safety

6. THE SECURITY

7. THE SECURITY

• to prevent the accidents
• effective warning about
dangers
• to determine the distance
between two closest trains
• to provide a high integration
with a dispatcher center

8. MAINTENANCE WORK: PURPOSES OF SATELLITE TECHNOLOGIES APPLICATION

• to supply repair equipment
• to control technical
regulations observance
• to monitor maintenance work
• to make reports

9. NAVIGATION TECHNOLOGIES IN LOGISTICS

• to plan the route for intermodal
transportation
• to reduce fuel consumption
• to decrease storage costs
• to reach the highest efficiency
