Hello,
I think there is an issue with the implementation of semantic constraint IS:023
Our railML files has this LPS:
<linearPositioningSystem id="_ips" startMeasure="0" endMeasure="-1" linearReferencingMethod="absolute" units="metres">
<name name="Intrinsic linear positioning system" language="en" description="This LPS is used for defining measuring tape distances on NetElements." />
<isValid from="2000-01-01" />
</linearPositioningSystem>
Note the endMeasure="-1".
All the linear coordinates that we use in our file that refer to this LPS, are marked as violating the IS:023 by railVIVID.
We have implemented based on the presentation given by Christian at the 46th conference where the internal positioning systems were introduced and more specifically on the slide with this title:
#541 Positioning approach (3/26)
Here's an extract of the slide:
Quote:
Intrinsic positioning system:
• This is a <linearPositioningSystem> with
• @startMeasure=0.0
• @endMeasure={infinity} → use value „-1" (because real pos values must not be negative)
• @units=metres
• @linearReferencingMethod=absolute
So we assume that "-1" is a valid value for "endMeasure" in our use case. Does railVIVID take this into account?
We notice that the wiki documentation doesn't show this -1. https://wiki3.railml.org/wiki/RTM:linearPositioningSystem
Which is probably the reason why this exception was not implemented in railVIVID.
If this -1 exception is still possible, I propose to implement it in railVIVID and make a note about this in the attribute on the wiki.
Thanks!

Hello Mathias,
Thank you for your feedback! We will investigate this issue further, however any solution if approved will be introduced after the release of 2.2.0-final that is under development this month. Christian is currently on vacation and we would need to clarify some details with him.
I will provide an update closer to the end of August, because then the coordinators should be available to discuss this issue.
Sincerely,
Margo Vyskarka
