Goal

Status

Detected Gaps

  • PLC attributes not filled
  • national dialects in PLC definition

PLC attributes not filled

In many data sets the PLC attributes are not filled. This inhibits the usage of a attribute type. E.g. Type of location (Passenger, Friegt, Infrastructure) One measure could be to make the necessary attributes mandatory. Consequence: The user has to load too many locations and to search externally for criteria to filter.

national dialects in PLC definition

The modelling of the network differs between IMs. There exists local situations where several PLC locations are defined for one business location. The different PLCs points either

  • to sections/parts of a larger stations or
  • they are used to store missing attributes (LOC_CUSTOMER1, LOC_CUSTOMER2, ...)

SLC are used for two purposes

The SLC is used both

  • for detailing out a PLC (precision)
  • for attributing information to the PLC

This is treated per network differently. This inhibits the usage of the master data.

Amount of PLC

The amount of PLC is too high for a specific usage but not complete. The SLC are not managed on a European basis which inhibits the usage as master data.

SLC defined several times

Some SLC's are defined several times triggered by different companies. E.g. Terminals Then we see the situation that the SLC is modelled differently (as PLC, related to PLC_A, related to PLC_B, ...)

PLC defined several times

PLC are defined several times to store attributes with it.

technical but no business governance

RNE ensures the technical assistance. But their is no body to manage and steer the business aspects of the CRD master data.

small players not involved

The master data is maintained by the bigger companies (IM and RU). The smaller RU and IM are not involved. This leads to gaps which inhibits the migration to CRD.

decentral government for PLC

The PLC are maintained per IM. Their is no assurance of the common governance which leads to national dialects in treaties and definitions.
