Exchange points

The purpose of the data product is to indicate locations where there is a connection between different transport networks and/or modes of transport. The change points shall also constitute a national reference and will be developed in cooperation between the Swedish Transport Administration, the Swedish Civil Aviation Administration and the Swedish Maritime Administration. The data set is considered as test data. Both completeness and timeliness are lacking. A changeover point (TransferNode) is a description of a place where switching between different modes of transport or modes of transport is possible. A byte point contains at least one stop point (StopPoint) where each stop point belongs to only one mode of traffic. Stop points are the places where the means of transport can stop and where people can step on/off and/or goods can be loaded on/off. If in one place there could be common exchange points for Air/Sea/Road/Railway, only one byte point is created according to the following hierarchical order: 1. Airport (LFV) 2. Port (SjöV) 3. Railway (TRV) 4. Road (TRV) Supplemented with the data product stoppoint, one can describe the connection between different transport network and/or mode of transport for a switching point; The TransportTypeValueOwner attribute indicates the mode of traffic that is “main owner” to the exchange point according to the hierarchy above. The TransportModeCode attribute indicates the type of transport type served by the exchange point. The data product switching points are not directly located-linked to a traffic network. Via the data product stop points can a switching point get a connection to a traffic network. The data is provided via order to the Swedish Transport Administration: [email protected].
