Session type: Lightning Talk
Abstract: CSX Technology is committed to leveraging the power of graph to maintain equipment state. They have a wealth of operational data for rolling equipment movements (locomotives, railcars, intermodal containers/trailers, and End of Train (EOT) devices). CSX Technology is interested in more accurate and timely equipment associations. In this session, they’ll talk about Locomotive to Train Association (LTA), rolling equipment (railcars to trains, rail stations, customers facilities, railroad interchanges), and roadmap (leveraging locomotive GPS to provide granular shipment updates for associated equipment). You’ll learn about their success story with rolling equipment in the CSX Digital Twin and applying the MERGE keyword to create an immutable graph strategy.
