Railroad GIS for Transports Publics du Chablais TPC

Transports Publics du Chablais (TPC) operates four railroad lines in the Chablais in the cantons of Vaud and Valais. To simplify the management and maintenance of its facilities, the company opted for a railroad GIS. Basler & Hofmann took over the development of the customized system.

A pilot project was carried out to clarify whether Basler & Hofmann's railway GIS is suitable for managing the network infrastructure. To this end, workshops were held to determine the requirements for the data model and processes. Particular attention was paid to the automatic aggregation of data for the network status report. At the same time, the processes for setting up the railway GIS were tested on a section of track. The pilot project demonstrated the benefits of the GIS for the TPC. The next step is to draw up the detailed specification for the initial survey. The railway GIS should also simplify the maintenance management of the TPC.
