Semantics / Bedeutung

The Element <operatingDay> gives a week based abstract description of an operating period for a normal day. Variations at certain types of days (e.g. public holidays) are dealt with in operatingDayDeviance. Two different elements <operatingDay> may be defined side-by-side to be valid on the same days (e.g. Modays). In this case the attributes startDate and endDate must be used to delimit different period parts in a non-overlapping fashion. For example one operatingDay element may describe the validity for January to May as Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, while another may describe it from June to December as Monday and Wednesday.

Das Element <operatingDay> gibt eine wochenbasierte Beschreibung der Verkehrsperiode für normale Tage. Besondere Tagestypen wie Feiertage werden im Unterelement <operatingDayDeviance> behandelt. Zwei unterschiedliche Elemente <operatingDay> können dabei gleichberechtigt definiert werden. In diesem Fall müssen diese über startDate und endDate zeitlich nicht überlappend voneinander abgegrenzt werden.
