Documentation

Syntax

Autoexport from the XML-Schema for element IS:networkLocation of railML® version 3.3
    
Documentation reference a LocatedNetEntity to the whole Network (or LevelNetwork) without explicitly naming all the contained NetElements. This approach will be useful to define "global values", e.g. the railway electrification parameters or the track gauge for the whole railway network.

Attributes:
  • networkRef: reference to a railway topology <network> element (optional; xs:IDREF)
*Notice:
Elements may have different parent elements. As a consequence they may be used in different contexts.
Please, consider this as well as a user of this Wiki as when developing this documentation further.
Aspects that are only relevant with respect to one of several parents should be explained exclusively in the documentation of the respective parent element.

Best Practice / Examples

2025-11-14 railML networkLocation.png
On the left side: electrification of Trafikverket (link to the railML® website) railway <lines> as is on 2025-11-14 according to Trafikverket Network Statement (external link). On the right side: imaginary case with all <network> electrified.

On the figure grey are non-electrified <lines>, red are electrified ones.

Please refer to <electrificationSection> Examples section for an example representing the case on the left side: <network> is partially electrified.

For the case on the right side (the whole network is electrified) the data can like follows:

<infrastructure>
  <topology>
    <netElements>
      ...
    </netElements>
    <netRelations>
      ...
    </netRelations>
    <networks>
      <network id="n1"/>
    </networks>
  </topology>
  <functionalInfrastructure>
    <electrificationSection>
      <networkLocation networkRef="n1" />
    </electrificationSection>
  </functionalInfrastructure>
</infrastructure>
