This contains four sets of data, extracted from the Infrastructure Network Model (INM):
- VectorLinks - a geographic representation of the Network Model at track level, categorised by ELR and track ID (TRID)
- VectorNodes
- VectorReferenceLines - a single linestring (polyline) for each ELR. This is an imaginary line which has been generated by creating a 'best fit' against the lines for each ELR
- VectorWaymarks
This contains five sets of data, extracted from the Infrastructure Network Model (INM):
- Vector MDU - the extent of each Maintenance Delivery Unit (MDU)
- Vector Region - the extent of each Region
- Vector Route - the extent of each Route
- Vector TME - the extent of each Track Maintenance Engineer
- Vector TSM - the extent of each Track Section Manager
This contains one set of data, extracted from the Infrastructure Network Model (INM):
