Abstract
Methods and systems for train detection apparatus angle alignment is described. A train detection system includes a train detection apparatus configured for installation at an installation site at a defined angle with respect to railroad tracks and a processor configured to execute a method for aligning the train detection apparatus to the defined angle. The processor configured to determine a railroad tracks angle with respect to a reference angle based on an image captured of the installation site, obtain, from a sensor, a train detection apparatus angle with respect to the reference angle, determine an alignment angle based on the railroad tracks angle and the train detection apparatus angle, and send the alignment angle to substantially align the train detection apparatus to the railroad tracks in accordance with the defined angle.
