Rail networks stretch across hundreds of kilometres of track, stations, level crossings and depots, much of it remote and unstaffed. ComPOL watches the places your people can’t, detecting trespass, theft and vandalism as it happens and responding in seconds.

The challenge
Trespass causes delays, cancellations and tragic accidents, and it often happens at remote locations that no one is watching.
How ComPOL helps
LiDAR and thermal detection spot people on or near the track, day and night, and trigger audio warnings and alerts before a train arrives.
Stolen signalling cable and copper bring services to a halt and cost far more to repair than the metal is worth.
How ComPOL helps
Perimeter detection along cable routes and lineside equipment flags intruders the moment they arrive and captures evidence for prosecution.
Graffiti, stone-throwing and damage to rolling stock drive up cleaning and repair bills and make passengers feel unsafe.
How ComPOL helps
Rules-based lighting and audio deter offenders on approach, while PTZ cameras record clear footage to support police enforcement.
See what ComPOL sees
ComPOL doesn’t flood your team with raw camera feeds. It filters out the noise, deters intruders on the spot and sends a clear, prioritised alert with evidence when people need to act.

Use cases
Detect people and vehicles on the crossing as barriers lower and warn them off before a train arrives.
Protect stabled rolling stock from graffiti, theft and damage overnight, when depots are quietest.
Spot platform-end trespass and anti-social behaviour, and give staff a live view of what is happening.
Guard signalling cabinets, cable troughs and relocatable equipment buildings against theft and tampering.
Monitor known trespass hotspots and vulnerable structures without sending staff on patrol.
Track workers and equipment with RFID and UWB tags and alert when anyone strays outside the protected zone.
Always-on protection
Immediate Action turns data from multiple sensors into meaningful, actionable intelligence that supports faster detection, decision-making and response.
LiDAR, radar, thermal and PTZ cameras watch the whole site around the clock, in darkness and poor weather where ordinary CCTV struggles.
Onboard processing classifies people, vehicles and animals and applies your rules, so genuine threats are flagged and false alarms are filtered out.
Rules-based lighting and live or pre-recorded audio challenge intruders on approach, so incidents can be stopped before any damage is done.
Command & Control software sends a prioritised alert with video evidence to your team or monitoring centre, ready for action and enforcement.
