TAP TSI Masterplanning

Overview of RU/IM obligations

Masterplanning Kick-offBrussels, 25 September 2012


The goal of TAP RU/ IM standards is providing interoperability…

TAP RU/ IM functions take into account different stakeholders than TAF, with an overlap on the IM side

Providing passengers with important travel information on all rail journeys

This is different to TAF

Involved actors: - Infrastructure Managers - Passenger RUs - Station Managers

… for Passengers

Railway companies can – with the same standards for domestic and interoperable services -- order train paths- control and manage their train

services- improve passenger information

… for Rail Companies

Station Managers (SMs) in the sense of TAP are entities responsible for passenger information in the stations

SMs and Passenger RUs are actors that fall under TAP and have had limited or no implication by TAF

Reference


Reference data is technically centrally, but code allocation needs to be organised per country

Questions mainly for Infrastructure Managers and National Contact Points

When will your company/country

– identify the Code Allocation Entity in your country ?

proposed is that the largest IM in a country should execute this role or take care that this role is defined within their country

– be able to populate the reference file ?

– sign up to be registered on Reference File System (CRD) to execute tests ?https://crd.tsi-cc.eu/CRD/onlineUser/signUp.action


The RU/IM Implementation Guide together with the message catalogue is the main result of Phase One and the base for implementation


Commercial solutions outside the TAP legal frame are being prepared by some sector organisations

Availability of support from stakeholder groups

Commercial/voluntary support of activities outside the legal TSI frame

Related initiatives such as PCS1 can support IMs and RUs on a voluntary basis

Activities to implement TAP in these initiatives will take place after the final specifications and the ability of users become clear

The reference implementation of the Common Interface is available and can be used. More information: [email protected]

Specifications TAP RU/ IM standards have been finalised

by May 2012; going through CCM now

Usability Ability of companies to use the standards

needs to be known via TAP Masterplan

1) Path Co-ordination System


Future: Both mandatory RU/ IM work to fulfil the regulation as well as useful work to fulfil stakeholder requirements will start immediatly

Check the external specifications of the reference implementation of the CI (CCG CI). Relevant for TAF and TAP

Clarify stakeholder questions on deliverables

Check/enhance messages for Short Term Path Request for

– Annual Path Requests

– One Stop Shops

– Coach Group (through coaches) Code list maintenance

Create a wagon ordermessage for passenger information

– This is relevant for TAP only

Enhance work on Train Identification (see also previous slide)

– Create technical messages needed for TAF and TAP

– to accommodate passenger specific requirements

Regulation driven Sector driven

Most points are valid forboth TAF and TAP

A common TAP and TAF RU/ IM workstream will deal with these topics.The results will add to the existing baseline/standards.
