Deselecting qualified relations fails

In the DATEX Tool, you cannot deselect roles with an index qualifier.
The Tool treats them as mandatory. This is because of the 1-1 relation, which determines – in these special cases - in fact the size of the qualified subitems.
 I think, in the resulting XSD, this is no problem, the field is not set mandatory.

In Vehicle class there is vehicleCountryOfOrigin attribute with type MultilingualString. According to description it should be CountryEnum or maybe even better just String for accepting cars outside of EU, eg. Russia.

 During the TG meeting in Firence a feature to verify that nothing has been changed in level A part of the model was requested. 
One solution would be to store how a version of a specific version shoudl look like. When loading a model, and the same version, check will be made to ensure that nothing has been changed in the model.

Extension information

With this extension, it is possible to label DATEX II traffic messages (i.e. SituationRecords) as safety related according to the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 886/2013 'with regard to data and procedures for the provision, where possible, of road safety-related minimum universal traffic information free of charge to user'.

A subset of DATEX II elements, which should be used to meet the requirements of the delegated regulation, can be found in the document "Safety related message sets - Selection of DATEX II Codes, TPEG2-TEC-Causes and TMC-Events for EC high level Categories" from the ITS Directive Working Group, which is enclosed in the documentation of this package.

bearing

Submitted by Joerg Freudenstein on Wednesday, 9 July, 2014 - 13:44

In Level A, the following two attributes exist:

  • "directionBearing" of type AngleInDegrees (for wind)
  • "bearing" of type NonNegativeInteger (for a point)

They seem to adress the same issue. I suggest to harmonize them (i.e. using the upper one for points, too).
Furthermore, nowhere is explained, that degree 0 means 'true north'. I suggest to add this to the definition(s).

RoadName, roadNumber

Submitted by Joerg Freudenstein on Wednesday, 25 June, 2014 - 10:40

The two attributes roadName and roadNumber are part of the LinearElement class. Their definition is specific for Linears, which makes it impossible to reuse these attributes elsewhere. Newertheless, these two attributes are valueable in a more general context.

Proposals:
* change both definitions to more general terms
* consider to move these attributes into a higher place of hierarchy, for example into the NetworkLocation class or into the SupplementaryPositionalDescription class (note that a Point for example is also usually located on a road).

Remove country enumeration

Submitted by Joerg Freudenstein on Tuesday, 3 June, 2014 - 16:55

CEN

CEN 278 WG8 decided not to introduce a huge number of currency enum-literals but to use a String instead an to refer to the standard instead.

The same should be done with the Country enum (i.e. removing the enumeration, change to String, referring to standard).
Maybe other enumerations have to be checked as well for this issue.
