Hello all,
following the discussion at the last TT developer meeting I would like to add that the TAF/TAP TSI already includes a so called train activity type. Adding the TAF/TAP train activity types might be used to support the actual list of standard and country specific activities. However, these shall be mapped to the corresponding railML attributes (mapping outstanding).
12.14.7 Use of the Train Activity Type and Associated Trains
The list of Activity Type Codes is split into two types: Common European Codes that are available to be used by all countries and National/Company codes that are only relevant to a specific network and to be used in the RU / IM communication only for that network. In both cases the element size will be 4 alpha-numeric.
Common European Codes will have the structure as follows:
• 4 Digit Code (numeric) that represents the Code List values for the common activities
National Codes will have the structure as follows:
• The first two characters will represent the country of the network in ISO format e.g. UK
• The remaining two characters (represented as a numeric) will represent a single unique activity within the network e.g. 01 = Stops shorter than 30 secs
