it is good practice to introduce myself to this forum: I'm an employee of
Siemens NL, Den Haag.
I've been in rail automation for over 15 years, doing ETCS, tests, CBTC,
R&D, sales; the lot.
RailML caught my interest when doing simulation of the dutch high-speed
line (the only one in this muddy country for the time being ;) The
raildata could be imported by RailML, really cool !
Since, the idea has caught on that RailML is a fine format for
data-exchange between networkmanagers and suppliers for signalling,
simulation, OCS... This will be a huge leap for mankind (or at least a few
of 'm). Dutch ProRail is highly interested in the idea as a more efficient
means of data exchange will become necessary in the foreseeable future;
engineering ETCS by hand from scans of outdated maps would be a nightmare.
Currently, we're in a project with ProRail to try and map their network
onto RailML. The previous posting puts a finger on one of the things that
were suboptimal.
Anyhow, all this sums up my interest RailML, may it be successful.
