4. Safety and security: Digital technologies can be used to monitor and manage railway infrastructure, track train movements, and detect potential safety hazards. This helps in preventing accidents and ensuring the security of passengers and railway staff.

5. Maintenance and asset management: Digital tools such as sensors, data analytics, and predictive maintenance algorithms can be used to monitor the condition of railway tracks, rolling stock, and other assets. This enables proactive maintenance, reduces downtime, and improves the reliability of railway services.

6. Freight management: Digital platforms can streamline the management of freight transportation by providing real-time tracking of cargo, optimizing routes, and automating documentation processes. This improves the efficiency and transparency of freight operations.

Railway Digital Service aims to transform traditional railway systems into smart, connected, and data-driven networks. By leveraging digital technologies, railways can enhance operational efficiency, improve customer satisfaction, and provide a more sustainable and reliable mode of transportation.
