Jvgdata Slope

Description

The railway tracks in Sweden usually have an inclination of less than 10 per mille in order to be able to run heavy freight trains. Lines where only passenger services are operated may have a higher gradient. The length of a track section with a smooth inclination shall be at least 20 m. See further reference [101]. Inclination is included as a trace element in the description of the track geometry and is part of the profile geometry, which also includes vertical curves. The track geometry represents the projected geometry and refers to the track centre. The data product contains the slope expressed in per thousand, the length of the track section that has the current slope and the method used for the data capture. When geometry has the attribute Origin = G (Geodetic), the data is coordinate-determined and comes from the GAD system or is transferred from the Geosecma system. The data product then has a high quality and can be used for all types of applications. The data product has stretch distribution and connects to the railway network with reference to the immediately preceding node and the immediately preceding kilometre board with distances in metres to both the start and end position of the route of the slope (=key points) in the direction of the track link.
