For each hour that an AIVR user spends on the platform, it’s estimated they save an eight-hour site visit or cab-ride, including travel and planning, reducing carbon and incidences of fatigue.

An AIVR license gives access to a suite of digital tools such as:

Measure

AIVR Platform Benefits

What our clients say about us

I live in North Yorkshire, in less than 5 minutes I can be in London, or Cornwall, or Scotland, viewing high-resolution videos of sections of track I would otherwise have had to visit in person to perform the same visual checks. It’s an invaluable and easy-to-use tool.

Matt Handford, Training & Technical Support

"Very good equipment to have to give us a heads-up before the patrols are due as some of these faults may not have been seen for a few months until the patrols are completed. I can now plan ahead and get the faults checked and the work completed before it effects the running of any passenger train."

Section Supervisor CRE

"We have found the AIVR software really useful and a great tool to assist us with our Signalling Design projects!"

DigiSig Rail Group

Russell Simpson

"AIVR is a good tool for Access Point work, such as identification of track entrance Stairs and Platform ends. I have used AIVR to support already collected data with further verification confirmation."

Network Data Manager

"AIVR has helped me with signal sighting activities on a number of schemes, where alternative footage was not readily available."

"Great solution that’s enabled early planning of work sites in a controlled space prior to going trackside - reducing exposure to the railway environment and improving site knowledge."

Construction Manager

"AIVR by One Big Circle has enabled our planning and site teams to gain a better understanding of site conditions and layout before attending the location due to the availability of regularly updated high quality footage."

Anthony Brooks, Senior Planning Manager

"GGP find the AIVR system to be a useful and user friendly tool for both increasing our pre-site survey spatial awareness around proposed assets and obtaining a base understanding of the lie of the land for our many long linear projects."

GGP Consult

Euan Allison, Principal Civil Engineer

"We think it is a great tool and really helps us with our planning – we are just scratching the surface of using it “properly,” I think so expect to get more value as we go."

Kent Group

Robert Kent, Operations Director

"It really is a massive benefit having such a vast coverage of cab footage without the hassle of having to arrange track access and often drive hundreds of miles in the process."
