1.1 General
NeTEx is dedicated to the exchange of scheduled data (network, timetable and fare
information). It is based on Transmodel European reference model for PT data. The
most recent version of NeTEx v1.1 is based on the most recent version of Transmodel,
V6.0 ( EN 12986 1/2/3/4/5/6), which now incorporates the prior IFOPT ( EN 28701 ). NeTEx also relates to SIRI (CEN 15531-1/2/3/4) and supports the exchange of information
of relevance for passenger information about public transport services and also for running Automated Vehicle Monitoring Systems (AVMS).
NOTE NeTEx is an implementation of a subset of Transmodel (including IFOPT); the definitions
and explanations of its concepts are extracted directly from Transmodel and reused
in NeTEx, sometimes with adaptations in order to fit the NeTEx context. Although the
data exchanges targeted by NeTEx Parts 1 to 5 are predominantly oriented towards provisioning
passenger information systems, AVMS and fare systems with data from transit scheduling
systems, it is not restricted to this purpose and NeTEx can also provide an effective
solution to many other use cases for transport data exchange.
