The linear entity definition is not, in itself, a record-keeping exercise. Its value emerges when maintenance processes are carried out based on this definition .
Troubleshooting and reporting
Fault logging on a point or range basis.
Location information is automatically transferred to the record.
Past failures in the same area are visible.
Recurring episodes can be reported.
Scheduled maintenance
Segment-based maintenance plans
Different periods depending on the level of criticality.
December definition of campaign activities
Monitoring what was done and what wasn't done along the way.
Work order and site
The work order is linked directly to the segment.
The team is provided with the exact location information.
Material and labor costs are segmented.
The closing record is entered into the line's history.
Measurement and control
Periodic measurement values along with location.
Inspection and examination records
Warning when threshold values are exceeded.
Trend analysis through measurement trends.
A tangible equivalent
In a cathodic protection measurement, values around KM 52 fall below the limit.
In Minerva, this measurement is point-specific. You can see past measurements in the same section, the material of that segment, the year it was laid, the type of flooring, and the work done in the last five years all on a single screen. You make your decision based on the past, not on guesswork.
