Rail Safety and Operations with Greenmesh
Greenmesh Rail Safety and Operations is a complete end-to-end IoT solution developed in Australia for use within rail environments to improve safety and security, and to provide operational efficiencies to the rail industry.
Greenmesh can provide a rail operator with the following benefits:
Unlocking operational efficiency in railways through IoT and real-time monitoring
Level Crossing Safety
Greenmesh utilises advanced AI and machine learning, as well as purpose-built sensors to monitor rail level crossing safety.
- Detect if a vehicle doesn’t stop at a level crossing and if so then capture vehicle details, including license plate.
- Capture footage of an approaching locomotive to verify if the locomotive forward facing lights are displaying correctly.
- Determine if there are any obstacles en route that could impact locomotive and provide early warning notification to driver and motorists.
- Utilise advanced AI architecture to monitor and predict near miss events before they happen.

Maintenance and Operations
2.4
billion in 2021-22, a real 2.2% increase on the previous year.
20%
in real terms over the coming decade.
129
billion in rail civil construction and maintenance is forecast for the coming decade to 2031-32.
Greenmesh is capable of aiding with maintenance and operations tasks.
Illegal dumping detection
Trespasser detection & alerts
- Monitor on both sides of tracks and detect any illegal dumping or dumping of general discarded items such as litter, waste, trolleys, furniture and more.
- Monitor and detect animals on tracks or any other obstacles that could impede the safety of the locomotive.
- Monitor for any damage or defects to train and trackside train assets, tracks, overhead lines and more.
Provide AI analytics on vegetation growth
This would be complimented with 365mesh remote sensing satellite imagery which would provide users with a heat map of the exact location where the pest plants and weeds are located.
Realtime information relating to racks and trackside assets conditions
Monitor cargo loads and help with determining load amounts (size/ volume / type of load – ie coal, sand etc) or count quantity of logs loaded/unloaded and provide driver with a confirmation inventory digital ticket.
Continuous and rapid mobile deployment solutions
for anytime, anywhere, always on monitoring.
Greenmesh monitoring and detection solutions can be deployed anywhere with mobile trailers, cameras and sensors that can be mounted onto telescopic poles, vehicles and onsite depending on the railwork site’s surroundings, level crossing architecture and/or assets.
These remote solutions are self powered and can operate on a completely separate network, so they won’t impact any existing services or network.
Security, Theft Detection and Vandalism Control
Greenmesh’s Broadsecure module can provide real-time information relating to security, theft detection and vandalism control by:
- Utilising advanced AI for security, theft detection
- Detecting vandalism of signs/assets
- Monitoring for theft of cargo or other valuable assets/materials
- Monitoring for after hours theft or activity around the trains (this feature can be activated for different times of the day and can be turned on manually or switched off as required)
- Monitoring for breaking glass or other similar noises within locomotives or surrounding trackside buildings
- Detecting intruders, vehicles or wild animals inside unauthorised areas
Monitoring outbuildings and transformer or distribution boards / cabinets for intrusion detection and theft.
Cargo monitoring
Monitor cargo loads and assist with determining load amounts (size/ volume / type of load – ie coal, sand etc) or count logs being loaded/unloaded to provide driver with a confirmation inventory digital ticket.
After hours surveillance
Monitor for after hours for theft or activities around the trains (monitoring can be activated for different times of the day and can be turned on manually or switched off as required).
Distinctive noise monitoring
Monitor noises of interest such as glass breaking, doors opening and other noises that could indicate intrusion and theft.
With Intelligent Cloud-Based Video Surveillance with advanced AI/ML capabilities
Broadsecure provides miners and developers with comprehensive surveillance over their environment and has the ability to detect and track people, machinery and objects accurately. Broadsecure can also differentiate between individuals, vehicles and objects, recognise faces, identify suspicious behaviour, analyse patterns around people and vehicle movements, detect abnormal activities and raise alerts to the site’s security personnel. Our solution’s capabilities can also improve and bolster the workplace safety, access control, visitor management and employee attendance

Rail Workplace Health & Safety
Workers in on-site railway projects often perform their work in complex and dangerous environments, which can lead to occupational accidents caused by the risks of the work area.
Our goal is to create a tailored AI prevention strategy for our users that efficiently ensures safety on work sites, prevent accidents, helps comply to industry safety standards, and automates manual checking of the correct use of PPE, which not only implies a cost, but also opens the door to human error.
PPE detection
Harness detection
Safety PPE detection
Identifies PPE items such as safety headgear, glasses, and vests. Monitors whether track workers are properly wearing PPE wear while on railway sites and restricts workers from entering job sites if all the safety wear required is not detected.
Greenmesh also utilises real time electronic RFID tags. It’s unique identification feature can identify workers who do or do not comply with PPE standards, increasing the implementation of site safety monitoring around exclusion zones and machinery safe distancing.
Person down detection & alerting
Uses machine perception and video analytics to detect a single person or people who have fallen or slipped, and triggers instant alerts to authorised personnel so they can take immediate action.
Reports on trip and fall detection
With the use of person down alerting, Greenmesh keeps a count record of areas with repeated trips and fall incidents, such as certain track areas, giving users an accurate record of accident occurrences.
Detect potential workplace incidents between workers and moving vehicles
Determine safe distances between workers and moving machinery/ equipment with exclusion zones. This involves the installation of strategically placed blind spot detection and driver monitoring cameras onto vehicles to give drivers real time warnings of hazardous collision risks such as other objects or people who are close by.
Create virtual boundaries/GEO fencing and receive boundary intrusion alerts.
Our algorithms in the cameras deployed allows users to create a virtual safety and exclusion zone radius around potentially dangerous tracks such as faulty tracks and machinery, monitor these areas and receive real time alerts when an unauthorised worker or other vehicles enters the exclusion zone, indicating that they are too close and may be in the way of danger.
Digital shield to automatically stop equipment when unsafe situation is detected
Utilising our boundaries and GEO fencing capabilities, users can set up virtual fences around dangerous machinery and which will automatically switch off machines if a person or object is detected in the boundary, preventing machinery accidents.
