An automated system measures a plurality of parameters representing conditions of a linear asset while traversing the asset, thereby generating a plurality of data channels representing measurements of the plurality of parameters along the asset. The linear asset may be traversed a plurality of times to obtain additional data within the data channels. For each data channel, measurements obtained from multiple traversals are aligned with each other. Measurements in the data channels are aligned with locations along the linear asset. The resulting aligned data channels may be used to identify locations along the linear asset requiring replacement and/or repair.
