Use case / Anwendungsfall

Import complete timetable for vehicle working scheduling and vehicle workings; Umlaufbildung Fahrzeuge Jahresfahrplan

Description / Beschreibung

A complete timetable shall be imported, serving as base for vehicle working scheduling.

The following usecases are covered:

• import infrastructure for vehicle working scheduling (optional)
• import rolling stock data (optional)
• import timetable for a calendar period
• import timetable for an abstract regular week (template)
• import partial vehicle working data

Data Flows and Interfaces / Datenflüsse und Schnittstellen

Typically, the import is done manually using a file based interface.

Interference with other railML^® schemas / Interferenz mit anderen railML^®-Schemen

• Common
• Infrastructure: the import uses elements from mesoscopic and macroscopic perspective
• Rolling stock

Characterizing Data / Charakterisierung der Daten

How often do the data change (update)?

• static

• whole data set, or region

Which views are represented by the data (focus)?

• mid term

Which specific data do you expect to receive/send (elements)?

Timetable data

• base data of commercial and operational trains (validity, train numbers, train category, train line, operators, concessionairs, subcontractors etc)
• commercial train data
  • itineraries with optional platform assignments
  • commercial formation requirements (may vary per itinerary section), commercial coupling and branching
  • planned connection requirements with
    • validity, source and target, minimum and maximum connection time, connection guaranteed flag, same platform required flag, connection direction (incoming, outgoing, both)
• operational train data
  • references to commercial trains
  • itineraries with optional platform assignments
  • formations (may vary per itinerary section), including coupling and branching of trains

Infrastructure data

Stops, stations, tracks, track sections. They should

• refer to a validity, possibly to be extended to daytime validity
• carry infrastructure restrictions
• allow computation of itineraries, including changes of direction

Rolling stock data

Vehicle information should include

• validity reference
• length
• weight
• speed
• traction
• seating capacity (per class)
• standing capacity
• additional services (buffet, wlan, etc.)

vehicle working and rostering data

Vehicle workings may be imported if there is a pre-planning that is to be completed.

• Concatenation of operating trains to vehicle workings that are served by the same (abstract) vehicle
• Shunting trips within Template:Ocps (referencing microscopic infrastructure)
• Non-revenue trains implementing operational needs
• Maintenance blocks for abstract vehicles

Rosterings may be imported if there is a pre-planning that is to be completed.

The following data could be imported:

• Assignment of a rostering plan to a depot
• Concatenation of vehicle workings to multi-day sequences of trains served by the same (abstract) vehicle
• depot runs
• vehicle standbys
• vehicle accounting for maintanance intervals

Open issues

• Identification of operational and commercial trains (if not present in railML data)
• Relationship between operational and commercial trains (itineraries, formations, ...)
