Track Geometry Measurement System Market by Measurement Type (Gauge, Twist, and Vertical Profile), Operation Type (No Contact and Contact), Railway Type (High Speed, Mass Transit, Heavy Haul, and Light), Component, and Geography - Global Forecast to 2025-2036
The track geometry measurement system (TGMS) market was valued at USD 3.69 billion in 2024 and is estimated to reach USD 7.10 billion by 2036, at a CAGR of 5.7% between 2025 and 2036.
Track geometry systems are a critical need to ensure safety and ride quality in railway operations. Accurate measurement and maintenance of track geometry parameters, such as gauge, alignment, cross-level, and twist, help prevent derailments and minimise wear on both the track and rolling stock. With increasing rail traffic volumes and higher train speeds, maintaining optimal track geometry is crucial for ensuring operational efficiency and passenger comfort. Additionally, advancements in sensor technology and automated monitoring systems are driving the adoption of sophisticated track geometry measurement solutions.

The track geometry measurement system (TGMS) ensures rail safety by utilising various measuring equipment to record the railway track's geometry conditions. The system is a combination of hardware and software components that derive track geometry parameters. It identifies track geometry anomalies and records the track data. By viewing and analysing the recorded data, construction and maintenance decisions are taken. Accurate and reliable track geometry data is required for the cost-effective track construction, maintenance, and operational safety.
Market by Components
In terms of components, cameras are expected to have the highest growth rate during the forecast period. High-resolution digital cameras are used during track geometry measurement procedures to capture images and videos of crucial parameters of the tracks. The cameras and advanced image processing algorithms have extremely reliable image acquisition and processing capabilities. Nowadays, advanced and innovative cameras and imaging systems are used for better inspection of a range of track parameters. For instance, ENSCO (US) developed the Track Component Imaging System (TCIS) that allows railways to automatically collect continuous images of the roadbed from a moving platform. The Rail Surface Imaging System (RSIS) collects and records continuous high-resolution images of the rail surface from a moving vehicle. Also, the Virtual Track Walk (VTW) software developed by ENSCO enables high-resolution track images to be inspected during data analysis. It allows the user to mark defects and track assets. The software then automatically tags these defects with milepost numbers and GPS coordinates. Fugro (Netherlands) provides aerial LiDAR and imaging capability, which is a fast, accurate, and cost-effective solution for mapping the complete railway networks for pre-feasibility track design.
Market by Operation Type
The no-contact segment holds a dominant position in the TGMS market. The leading position of this segment can be credited to the benefits of no-contact track geometry measurement systems. These systems are capable of measuring tract geometry at high speeds because no parts are in contact with the train or any other objects, and there are no moving parts. In addition, no-contact track geometry measurement systems can perform efficiently at low speeds and when all parameters are at the same speed. Inertial-based and chord-based are the two main types of non-contact track geometry measurement systems available in the TGMS market. MER MEC (Italy), DMA (Italy), Balfour Beatty (UK), Rail Vision Europe (UK), and Plasser & Theurer (Austria) are among the various companies operating in the TGMS market that offer no-contact track geometry measurement systems.
Market by Geography
Asia Pacific holds the largest market in 2024. Also, a high growth rate is expected for this market in the Asia Pacific. Based on country, the market is further divided into China, Japan, Australia, India, and the Rest of the Asia Pacific. This growth is attributed to the rapid expansion of high-speed rails and mass transit systems in the Asia Pacific countries in recent years. Further, rising demand for improved safety in railway transport and cost-effective smart technologies for maintaining tracks is the primary driver of the market.
Market Dynamics
Driver: Presence of various standards and regulations in the railway industry
Safety is among the key focus areas in the railway industry, and to ensure safety, there are various standards and regulations in this industry. The companies operating in the railway industry need to comply with these standards and regulations. With regard to track, there are standards for various aspects of track, including track geometry, track structure, and roadbed. Roadbed, drainage, and vegetation are the key factors that are monitored; under track structure, a few factors that are monitored are rail joints, tie plates, switches, and ballast; gauge, alignment, curvature, twist, and vertical profile are among the key parameters monitored under track geometry.
Restraint: Lack of required infrastructure
The track geometry measurement system provides accurate and reliable real-time track data, as well as helps in long-term maintenance planning. The system can be installed virtually on any rail-bound vehicle, and it provides all the data necessary for the optimum management of track assets. A centralised system is required to establish track geometry data management for the railway, as this is an integration of a large number of components, technologies, and solutions. Hence, all the segments need to operate smoothly and collectively. Malfunctioning or disconnection of any parameters can lead to several complications for users in terms of cost and technical complexities. The slow growth rate of the required infrastructure and, sometimes, the non-availability of advanced components, tools, or solutions are the major factors that can hinder the growth of the track geometry measurement system market for railways.
Opportunity: Growing demand for track geometry measurement systems from developing countries
The rapid development of railway infrastructure in developing countries such as India, China, Saudi Arabia, and Mexico has led to the rise in demand for track geometry measurement systems. Increasing urbanisation, rising income of individuals, and growing government investment towards infrastructural development are among the key factors boosting the development of railway infrastructure in developing countries. Various metro railway, light railway, and high-speed railway projects are in progress or are planned in the near future in developing countries.
Challenge: Data protection and management
It is imperative to collect and measure the track data at regular intervals for operational efficiency and maintenance. Protecting data from misuse is crucial as it can pose a major threat to the business. There is an inherent risk due to the number of companies involved in handling data and the stakeholders present in the value chain, along with observing the flow of data from end to end. Without sufficient computer security policies, businesses may find themselves unable to cope with these security threats.
Future Outlook
The future outlook for track geometry measurement systems (TGMS) is optimistic, with significant growth expected due to increasing investments in railway infrastructure and modernisation projects worldwide. Advances in sensor technology, AI, and data analytics are enhancing measurement accuracy and operational efficiency, enabling predictive maintenance and real-time monitoring. The rise of non-contact measurement methods like laser scanning and LiDAR is reducing track wear and improving safety during inspections. Growing urbanisation and expansion of high-speed rail and metro networks are driving demand for sophisticated TGMS solutions to ensure safety and optimise maintenance. Additionally, regulatory emphasis on strict safety standards and digital transformation initiatives will further propel market growth in the coming years.
