Abstract:
Implementation of a GIS system In Railways is one of the long time goal because of existence of huge amount of Data in this Industry. For this reason we assigned a operational team for collecting positional data for Construction of several layers of graphical data which are important and applicable to decision support and then transfer these data to integrated data bases. Constructing of positional and descriptive data in Railway is a long process and to expedite and optimize management of collecting, processing (Analyzing) ,controlling and then storing refined data and also reducing the costs with respect to accuracy and correctness which are needs for use of GPS and Multimedia integration method has been achieved.
To analyze and evaluate of our needs, current situation of data, assets, cost, time, acceptance and willingness of cooperation from different departments with respects to what GIS can do is one of our achievement in pilot project. In spite of many data acquisition constraints we were successful in designing and development software for translation of films to pictures, automation of Input and process of data, development of intermediary software and ability to broadcast multimedia films, interface and storing of about 700 GIGA Bytes of information in databases.
The mentioned system has successfully completed its mission and its intermediary software can be used in computer networks. It was possible for our system to correct the mistakes which happens during data collection and any other part of analyzing. It has been found that
