Abstract

The paper presents the results of research on the author’s solution employed in surveying Railway Special Grid (KOS) signs, based on the Near Field Communication technology (NFC) and reflective (measuring) target. The surveying Railway Special Grid points are at the same time track axis adjustment signs, included in the Railway Surveying Grid (KOG) and having a character of multifunctional surveying signs. The innovative surveying Railway Special Grid sign is equipped with an NFC tag, allowing wireless exchange of information (read and write). It is coated with reflective surveying foil (reflective measuring target) with crosshairs (horizontally and vertically). It determines the X, Y, H coordinates and track axis adjustment data. Thus, it allows measurement with an electronic tachymeter (Electronical Total Station) in relation to the surveying Railway Special Grid points. Black crosshairs—clearly visible on the surface of the reflective target—improve localisation possibilities and make it easier to aim for the central point, as the horizontal and vertical lines guarantee some offset to the track axis, while the NFC tag provides wireless exchange of data. The paper presents the author’s observations and conclusions and was made as a part of statutory research 16.16.150.545.
