scope:

The main objective of the present standard is to present thereference data model for public transport, based on: ? thereference data model, EN 12896, known as Transmodel V5.1; ? EN28701, known as IFOPT; incorporating the requirements of: ? EN15531-1 to -3 and CEN/TS 15531-4 and CEN/TS 15531-5, Serviceinterface for real-time information relating to public transportoperations (SIRI); ? CEN/TS 16614-1 and CEN/TS 16614-2, Network andTimetable Exchange (NeTEx), in particular, the specific needs forlong distance train operation. A particular attention is drawn tothe data model structure and methodology: ? the data model isdescribed in a modular form in order to facilitate theunderstanding and the use of the model; ? the data model isentirely described in UML. In particular, a Reference Data Modelkernel is described, referring to the data domain: ? networkdescription: routes, lines, journey patterns, timing patterns,service patterns, scheduled stop points and stop places. This partcorresponds to the Transmodel V5.1 network description extended bythe IFOPT relevant parts. Furthermore, the following functionaldomains are considered: ? timing information and vehicle scheduling(runtimes, vehicle journeys, day type-related vehicle schedules); ?passenger information (planned and real-time); ? fare management(fare structure, sales, validation, control); ? operationsmonitoring and control: operating day-related data, vehiclefollow-up, control actions; ? management information and statistics(including data dedicated to service performance indicators); ?driver management: ? driver scheduling (day-type related driverschedules); ? rostering (ordering of driver duties into sequencesaccording to some chosen methods); ? driving personnel disposition(assignment of logical drivers to physical drivers and recording ofdriver performance). The data modules dedicated to cover mostfunctions of the above domains will be specified. Several conceptsare shared by the different functional domains. This data domain iscalled ?common concepts?.
