RailData continuously monitors sector developments and the evolving needs of its current and potential users. Based on these insights, RailData proposes and develops concepts for new functions and services.
RailData Web Center is our main development project. It will bring ISR, ORFEUS, CoReDa and ATTI together into a single web application, replacing webISR, webORFEUS, webCoReDa and webATTI, the four separate interfaces our users work with today.
For users this means one address and one login instead of separate credentials for each application. Those working for more than one company will be able to switch between them without logging out, and the interface is being rebuilt for today’s browsers and screens.
The data and the functions our users rely on remain unchanged, and new ones are being added. Within their existing access rights, users will be able to move between the applications seamlessly, for example from a wagon number straight to its latest wagon statuses in ISR. Keeper and responsibility data from CoReDa will be shown alongside the wagon number wherever it appears. A map view for following wagons is also planned.
RailData has introduced a new service called Email to WSM, which allows railway undertakings to report wagon status events into ISR without building a system-to-system connection. The user fills in a spreadsheet template with a list of wagon numbers and a few basic details, such as whether each wagon is loaded or empty, sends it to a dedicated RailData mailbox, and receives a confirmation by email. The service checks the list, combines it with values agreed in advance for that user, and creates the corresponding wagon status messages in ISR.
The service is aimed at first and last mile operators, for whom a full integration would be disproportionate to the volume of data they exchange. Together with a Web Center account for reading wagon statuses reported by other parties, Email to WSM covers both directions without any integration work. It is already used by our first partners and is available to other RailData users on request.
RailData is thrilled to announce that it has received TAF certification from the European Union Agency for Railways (ERA) for its ISR and ORFEUS messaging and translation services! This prestigious recognition confirms compliance and future-proof connectivity for all RailData stakeholders, and marks a proud milestone in our commitment to advancing digital interoperability and compliance across the European rail sector. After a rigorous assessment, ERA has officially confirmed that not only the Wagon Status Message (WSM, version 61) and Consignment Order…
