thus replace Transmodel V5.1 The split into several documents intends to ease the task of users interested in particular functional domains Modularisation of Transmodel, undertaken within the NeTEx project, has contributed significantly to this new edition of Transmodel In addition to the eight Parts of this European Standard, an informative Technical Report (Public transport – Reference data model – Informative documentation) is also being prepared to provide additional information to help those implementing projects involving the use of Transmodel It is intended that this Technical Report will be extended and republished as all the eight parts are completed According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom BS EN 12896-3:2016 EN 12896-3:2016 (E) Introduction EN 12896-3 presents the following items: — rationale for the Transmodel Standard; — use of the Transmodel Standard; — applicability of the Transmodel Standard; — conformance statement; — Transmodel origins; — reference to the previous version and other documents The data structures represented in EN 12896-1 are generic patterns that are referenced by different other parts EN 12896-2 presents space-related data structures This European Standard presents time-related data structures and replaces the sections of EN 12896:2006 referring to the time-related tactical planning components and to vehicle scheduling BS EN 12896-3:2016 EN 12896-3:2016 (E) Scope 1.1 General scope of the Standard The main objective of the present standard is to present the reference data model for public transport, based on: — the reference data model, EN 12896, known as Transmodel V5.1; — EN 28701, known as IFOPT; incorporating the requirements of: — EN 15531-1 to −3 and CEN/TS 15531-4 and CEN/TS 15531-5, Service interface for real-time information relating to public transport operations (SIRI); — CEN/TS 16614-1 and CEN/TS 16614-2, Network and Timetable Exchange (NeTEx), in particular, the specific needs for long distance train operation A particular attention is drawn to the data model structure and methodology: — the data model is described in a modular form in order to facilitate the understanding and the use of the model; — the data model is entirely described in UML In particular, a Reference Data Model kernel is described, referring to the data domain: — network description: routes, lines, journey patterns, timing patterns, service patterns, scheduled stop points and stop places This part corresponds to the Transmodel V5.1 network description extended by the IFOPT relevant parts Furthermore, the following functional domains 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); — operations monitoring and control: operating day-related data, vehicle follow-up, control actions; — management information and statistics (including data dedicated to service performance indicators); — driver management: — driver scheduling (day-type related driver schedules); — rostering (ordering of driver duties into sequences according to some chosen methods); — driving personnel disposition (assignment of logical drivers to physical drivers and recording of driver performance) BS EN 12896-3:2016 EN 12896-3:2016 (E) The data modules dedicated to cover most functions of the above domains will be specified Several concepts are shared by the different functional domains This data domain is called “common concepts” 1.2 Functional domain description The different functional domains taken into account in the present standard and of which the data have been represented as the reference data model are described in “Public transport reference data model part 1: Common concepts” They are: — public transport network and stop description; — timing information and vehicle scheduling; — passenger information; — fare management; — operations monitoring and control; — management information; — personnel management: driver scheduling, rostering, personnel disposition The aspects of multi-modal operation and multiple operators’ environment are also taken into account 1.3 Particular scope of this document The present European Standard entitled “Reference data model for public transport – Part 3: Timing information and vehicle scheduling” incorporates: — journey and journey times model: describes the time-related information at the level of vehicle journeys, i.e planned timing for the vehicles at day-type level; — dated journey model: describes the link of the timing information for a single operating day and the day type related timing; — passing times model: describes all the different types of passing times for the day type related information; — vehicle service model: describes the information related the work of vehicles as planned for days types it constitutes the main part of the vehicle scheduling data domain; — vehicle journey assignment model: describes operational assignments (advertised vehicle labels, stopping positions) related to particular vehicle journeys This document itself is composed of the following parts: — main document (normative) representing the data model; — Annex A (normative), containing the data dictionary and attributes tables, i.e the list of all the concepts present in the main document together with the definitions; — Annex B (informative), indicating the data model evolutions BS EN 12896-3:2016 EN 12896-3:2016 (E) Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application For dated references, only the edition cited applies For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies EN 12896-1:2016, Public

identifier Universal resource locator Timing information and vehicle scheduling data domain 5.1 Introduction The work of the vehicles necessary to provide the service offer advertised to the public consists of service journeys and dead runs (unproductive journeys are necessary to transfer vehicles where they are needed, mainly from the depot into service and vice versa) Vehicle journeys are defined for day types rather than individual operating days A day type is a classification of all operating days for which the same service offer has been planned The whole tactical planning process is seen on the level of day types in the reference data model, with all entities necessary to develop schedules These include a series of entities describing different types of run times and wait times, scheduled interchanges, turnaround times etc Chaining vehicle journeys into blocks of vehicle operations, and cutting driver duties from the vehicle blocks, are parts of the main functions of vehicle scheduling and driver scheduling, respectively The corresponding entities and relationships included in the reference data model allow a comprehensive description of the data needs associated with this functionality, independently of the particular methods and algorithms applied by the different software systems BS EN 12896-3:2016 EN 12896-3:2016 (E) 5.2 Overview 5.2.1 Model and document structure The timing information model is splits into four main sub-models defined as UML packages — Journey and journey times model: describes the time-related information at the level of vehicle journeys, i.e planned timing for the vehicles at day-type level It splits into: — vehicle journey model; — service journey model; — time demand times model; — journey timing model ; — journey pattern times model; — vehicle journey times model; — interchange model; — interchange rule model; — coupled journey model; — flexible service model; — journey accounting model; — dated journey model: describes the link of the timing information for a single operating day and the day type related timing; — passing times model: describes all the different types of passing times for the day type related information; — vehicle service model: describes the information related the work of vehicles as planned for days types It constitutes the main part of the vehicle scheduling data domain 5.3 Journey and journey times 5.3.1 Vehicle journey 5.3.1.1 VEHICLE JOURNEY – Conceptual model 5.3.1.1.1 General The daily operation of a vehicle is described by VEHICLE JOURNEYs A VEHICLE JOURNEY is the defined movement of a vehicle using a specified JOURNEY PATTERN on a particular ROUTE This movement is made between the first and the last POINTs IN JOURNEY PATTERN Being defined for a DAY TYPE (cf [7]), a VEHICLE JOURNEY is a class of journeys that would take place at the same time on each day of a specific DAY TYPE BS EN 12896-3:2016 EN 12896-3:2016 (E) TRAIN NUMBER (TI Vehicle Journey MODEL)
