Method and apparatus for remote detection and control of data recording systems on moving systems
First Claim
1. A method of remotely detecting and controlling whether locomotive data indicative of at least one of integrated diagnostic data, telemetry data and recording systems data from a locomotive is valid locomotive data, the method comprising:
- a) remotely accessing locomotive data residing at the locomotive;
b) reviewing a data parameter characteristic of the locomotive data; and
c) comparing the data parameter to indicia signifying an expected data parameter characteristic.

11. Computer readable media containing program instructions for remotely detecting and controlling locomotive data indicative of at least one of integrated diagnostic data, telemetry data and recording systems data from a locomotive, the locomotive having a camera imaging an environment in a vicinity of the locomotive, and a data integrity database comprising a plurality of indicia to determine whether the locomotive data is valid data, the computer readable media comprising:
-
a) a computer program code for remotely accessing locomotive data residing at the locomotive;
b) a computer program code for reviewing a data parameter of the locomotive data; and
c) a computer program code for comparing the data parameter to indicia in the data integrity database signifying an expected data parameter characteristic. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A data verification system for remotely detecting and controlling whether collected locomotive data indicative of at least one of integrated diagnostic data, telemetry data and recording systems data from a locomotive is valid locomotive data, the system comprising:
-
a) a wireless communication system for remotely accessing locomotive data residing at the locomotive;
b) a first data storage device containing collected locomotive data;
c) a second data storage device containing acceptable data parameter ranges for valid locomotive data;
c) a processor operable to compare locomotive data to acceptable data parameter ranges; and
d) wherein when locomotive data does not correlate to acceptable data parameter ranges a corrective action is initiated to obtain locomotive data that correlates with the acceptable data parameter ranges. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
