PROBLEM STATEMENT

Indian Railways uses data science to predict maintenance requirements for its locomotives,
coaches, and tracks. By analyzing sensor data, data scientists can identify patterns and predict
when maintenance will be requires, reducing downtime and improving safety. It can be used
to improve maintenance, enhance the efficiency of train schedules, and reduce operational
cost. The routes and timings of a train is fixed and cannot be changed according to
individual requirements. It is not a cost-effective option for smaller loads and short distances.
In the event of an accident, there will be significant loss of life, products, and materials.
ABSTRACT

The Indian Railways system currently utilizes data analytics to improve operations, enhance
passenger experience, and optimize resources. Data analytics helps in predicting demand,
managing schedules, monitoring equipment health, and ensuring safety. By analyzing vast
amount of data, Indian Railways can make informed decision to enhance and service quality.
These systems analyze data related to train schedules, ticket bookings, passenger feedback,
maintenance, and more to optimize services and make informed decisions. Data Collection
ensures comprehensive collection of data from various sources such as ticket systems, tickets
schedules and maintenance records. Integrate data from different sources to create a unified
dataset for analysis. Data Quality ensures data accuracy, completeness, and consistency to
derive meaningful insights. Analytics tools utilize advanced analytics tools and techniques
such as machine learning, predictive modeling, and data visualization to analyze the data
effectively. Skilled Workforce train personnel in data analytics technique and tool to interpret
and act upon the insights generated.
