Abstract

Infrastructure is the backbone of the railway industry which is an extensive and particularly complex system. However, the usage of different national and international standards for its design has led to a large number of incompatible systems. In this paper, we present ATMO, Autonomous Train Map Ontology, a modular ontology for modelling an on-board digital map for autonomous trains representing the railway infrastructure, line-side signalling and associated buildings. Semantic web technologies, knowledge and ontology engineering are adopted to integrate information from heterogenous sources and diverse standards such as RailSystemModel, EULYNX and IFC Rail ; to ensure semantic consistency of digital map objects. The development process is based on METHONTOLOGY and produced : (i) UML model as lightweight ontology; and (ii) OWL formal machine-readable specification as heavyweight ontology. The latter was evaluated using a railway use case.
