Scoped evaluation

Evaluate on your journeys before integration.

We use a limited number of train runs, your files and the sector map. You see what MBDD Rail can reconstruct, what still requires review and whether the result genuinely saves time.

A practical case Your own files Measured results A clear decision

The principle

The evaluation may also show that data is missing.

That is a useful conclusion: you know which file to add, which section to review or why it is better not to proceed.

  1. Choose the evaluation

    What you want to verify and how to recognise a useful result.

  2. Review the files

    GPS/GNSS, speed or odometry, sector and available map.

  3. Reconstruct

    Calculate the journeys and flag uncertain passages.

  4. Compare

    Measure review time and the quality of the results obtained.

  5. Choose the next step

    Continue, complete the data, reduce the scope or stop.

To get started

The useful minimum is often simpler than expected.

For an initial evaluation, we simply check whether your positions, speed or odometry and the sector map can be compared.

Time-stamped GPS/GNSS positions

A time-stamped trace, even if some points are missing or precision falls in places.

Time-stamped speed or progression

Speed, odometry or another measurement that tracks the train’s progression.

The sector’s railway map

Your reference map, if available. Otherwise, MBDD-Solutions can propose one where the sector is covered.

Deliverables

The result, its limits and the files needed to review it.

The output begins with a concise summary. Technical details remain available for those who need to review or reproduce the calculation.

SCOPE

What the evaluation must verify

The initial question, selected journeys and the criteria used to assess the result.

QUALITY

Condition of your files

Covered periods, interruptions, time offsets and missing data.

RESULTS

Journeys and sections requiring review

Selected tracks, uncertain passages and the reasons behind each limit.

OUTCOME

Conclusion and next step

Measured results and a clear recommendation: continue, complete the data or stop.

At the end

The next step is never automatic.

The evaluation ends with a clear conclusion. You then choose whether to continue, complete the data or stop.

  • Stop when the value or data is insufficient.
  • Revise the evaluation or request the missing files.
  • Extend the location analysis on selected journeys.
  • Prepare regular file-based processing.
  • Connect MBDD Rail to your tools at a later stage.

Qualification workshop

Thirty minutes to determine whether an evaluation is worthwhile.

Send us an example journey and a list of your files. We will explain what we can evaluate, what is missing and how to measure the result.
