Product Details

How Dwell and Asset Utilization Works

Dwell and Asset Utilization application focuses on using GPS information from the onboard systems to identify the exact location of a locomotive and build a real-time reference into its delays, events and utilization during each trip. The application detects every stop by the locomotive and categories it into an event allowing operational teams to understand the duration of a dwell, where they occur and its location.

Features

  • Point of Reference – Get accurate data insights into locomotive location
  • Dwell – Get actual duration of delays and identify location
  • Categorization – Categorize reason for dwell and provide insight into impact
  • System of Record – Provides a system of record for what actually happens versus what was planned
