System and method for aggregation display and analysis of rail vehicle event information
First Claim
1. A rail vehicle event analysis system configured to facilitate analysis of rail vehicle event records that correspond to rail vehicle events, the system comprising one or more physical computer processors configured by computer readable instructions to:
- receive rail vehicle operation information via output signals generated by sensors coupled with a rail vehicle, the sensors including a first sensor that generates a first output signal conveying first operation information, and a second sensor that generates a second output signal conveying second operation information, wherein the first output signal is associated with first timing information, and wherein the second output signal is associated with second timing information;
detect a first rail vehicle event based on the first output signal and the second output signal, the first rail vehicle event having a start time and an end time;
associate information from the first output signal and the second output signal generated during the first rail vehicle event to create a first rail vehicle event record, wherein the first timing information includes a first time-stamp that indicates the start time of the first rail vehicle event, wherein the second timing information includes a second time-stamp that indicates the start time of the first rail vehicle event, and wherein the first time-stamp does not coincide with the second time-stamp; and
synchronize the information to create synchronized rail vehicle operation information from the first output signal and the second output signal based on analysis of the first time-stamp and the second time-stamp, wherein synchronizing includes identifying and correlating corresponding phenomena in the first output signal and the second output signal during the first rail vehicle event.

Abstract
This disclosure relates to a rail vehicle event analysis system configured to facilitate analysis of rail vehicle event records that correspond to rail vehicle events. The system may be configured to visually present a user with information related to operation of a rail vehicle. The user may review the information related to operation of the rail vehicle in real time, responsive to the rail vehicle being involved in a rail vehicle event, and/or at other times. The system may be configured to visually present information based on output signals generated by one or more sensors associated with the rail vehicle. The system may synchronize the presented information such that information from individual sensors may be compared and/or viewed at the same time by the user. The system may be configured to receive observations made by the user based on the user'"'"'s review of the presented visual information.
