Description
A level crossing is a crossing between road and rail in the same plane in order to enable safe and cost-effective passages for different modes of transport and rail, where different modes of transport primarily involve motorists, but also pedestrians, cyclists and scooter drivers. A level crossing can be equipped with a number of different safety equipment and components for both rail and road traffic. For the objects should be reported how they are equipped (e.g. different barriers, light signals, etc.). The large number of components is included to facilitate maintenance work. A large number of attributes are included in order to evaluate the road safety impact of level crossings and to be able to suggest the removal or reconstruction of crossings with deficiencies. To be able to locate the intersection, there is information about location, both in relation to the railway network but also with GPS coordinates (northing, easting) and information about, for example, road names. A level crossing exists in the computer product, as long as someone has the legal right to use it even if it is physically removed. A large part of the information for the data product Level Crossing is retrieved from NVDB (for data related to the level crossing seen from the road) and Plk-web. The attributes retrieved are briefly explained in the data product specification. A number of object types are also retrieved into the data product and displayed or used in calculations, see references[105-108] in the data product specification. • The Road Protection attribute automatically generates attribute values for Road Protection (NVDB) and Class under 2009/149/EC. • The Original Line attribute shows values from the crossing line subdivision type at the level crossing location over a distance. Plk-webb uses the attribute to indicate which direction the kilometer is increasing and thus be able to know which is the right and left side. The data product has a point distribution and connects to the railway network with reference to the immediately preceding node and the immediately preceding kilometre board with distances in metres in the direction of the track link. A level crossing object may be linked to multiple track links (the object shall be linked to all crossing track links).
