Traveler flow and station security optimization platform

A railway infrastructure manager can radically improve station security and service quality through a single operational intelligence platform. The solution delivers live passenger-flow visibility, predictive crowd alerts and evacuation simulation, enabling safer journeys and more efficient operations, powered by Edge AI.

セキュリティ

Increase congestion-related passenger security through optimized resource allocation

体験

Smoother traveler journeys through crowd density re-balancing

Emergency management

Implementation of emergency evacuation decision systems

From limited crowd visibility to proactive security management

Station teams often operate with fragmented sensor inputs, limited real-time occupancy information and evolving construction constraints, reducing their ability to anticipate congestion, protect passengers and maintain a consistent quality of service

From passenger flow blind spots to actionable intelligence for safer and more efficient station operations

目的

Establish an integrated station intelligence platform capable of connecting cameras, 3D sensors, train circulation data, alerts and simulation services to optimize traveler flow, station security and operational decisions in real time.

機会

Stations already generate valuable data, but it is often disconnected from decision making. Limited live analytics, poor last-mile visibility and unavailable evacuation simulations constrain safety and service levels. Operators can improve security, capacity and operational efficiency, by combining 5G connectivity, Edge computing and Digital Twin visualization.

Improving station performance through live flow intelligence and simulation

Together, NTT DATA and the customer developed a smart station solution that combines connected sensors, AI-based occupancy analytics, train data integration and Digital Twin services to help operators manage crowd risk, allocate resources and improve the traveler experience.

主な課題

a bird’s-eye view of a railway station with passengers and trains on the platform

Lack of real-time crowd and occupancy information across station areas

Massive passenger peaks in high-demand halls and platform access points

No integrated simulation capability for evacuation and disruption scenarios

Continuous infrastructure works and changing last-mile transport conditions

解決策

Enabling proactive station management through earlier alerts, shared visibility and smarter deployment of operational resources

Live operational view of passenger movement and station activity

Combined station operations and passenger-flow information to help teams understand occupancy, movement patterns and pressure points across halls, platforms and access areas

Earlier crowd-risk decisions, before congestion impacts service

Monitored density, flow trends and high-occupancy thresholds to help teams intervene earlier and protect safety, punctuality and traveler experience

Give station teams a clearer picture for coordinated decisions

Presented passenger movement, occupancy levels and operational context in a shared view, improving cross-team coordination through live status, past trends and scenario outputs

Improved readiness, planning and resource allocation

Evacuation planning, peak-time anticipation and smarter deployment of teams helps maintain service quality during disruptions, construction and demand peaks

影響

Traveler flow safety and service quality

Improved passenger safety through earlier crowd-risk detection
Reduced congestion and friction across critical station areas
Enabled smarter staffing, signage and last-mile coordination
Strengthened operational resilience with simulation-ready decisions

Smart Grid for a More Efficient and Resilient Railway Network

A railway infrastructure operator implemented a smart-grid pilot on a major high-speed rail corridor to improve the monitoring and management of traction-power infrastructure, including electrical substations. The solution integrates telecontrol systems, energy meters, network analysers and an enterprise IoT platform, centralising consumption, power-quality and operational information in real time. This digital foundation supports a more proactive approach to energy management, asset maintenance and infrastructure reliability.

Cybersecurity Incident Response and Critical Infrastructure Recovery

Following a major cyberattack affecting a railway infrastructure manager, NTT DATA delivered incident-response and compromise-recovery services to assess the impact, contain the threat and restore control over critical technology infrastructure. The engagement included analysis of compromised accounts, access paths and persistence mechanisms, recovery of affected workstations and servers, and review of the security tools operating in the environment. The response combined crisis execution with a structured path towards stronger monitoring, resilience and preparedness
