Matrix Geo deploys digital twin & drone LiDAR for rail corridor
Matrix Geo Solutions Limited has secured a railway infrastructure project in collaboration with the Ajmer Division of Indian Railways to deploy digital twin technology, drone-based LiDAR mapping, and 3D geospatial modelling for a proposed broad gauge rail corridor between Taranga Hill and Abu Road via Ambaji.
The project marks a significant step towards the adoption of data-driven railway planning and digital engineering frameworks in India’s transport infrastructure sector. By integrating aerial surveying, geospatial analytics, and digital twin modelling, the initiative aims to improve planning accuracy, reduce design risks, and enhance long-term operational visibility.
At the core of the project is the use of drone-based LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology, which will capture high-resolution terrain and infrastructure data across the proposed corridor. These aerial surveys will generate topographic maps, elevation models, and orthophoto mosaics, creating a precise digital representation of the landscape for engineering analysis and route planning.
