Permissible speeds at the Stuttgart Main station, including its surrounding light rail tracks. OpenRailwayMap maxspeed data are put as an overlay on top of on a pre-installed offline map in OsmAnd (see three easy steps to do that).
A map section showing the northern and of the Nürnberg–Munich high-speed line, including track types, station names, track numbers and milestones (as of April 2014)

OpenRailwayMap (anteriormente llamado "Bahnkarte") es un mapa en línea detallado del mundo de las infraestructuras ferroviarias, construido sobre OpenStreetMap. Está disponible desde mediados de 2013 en openrailwaymap.org.

Descripción

Some railways in the greater Stuttgart area (on a mobile phone)

Este proyecto fue fundado en Diciembre de 2012 con el fin de crear un mapa del mundo detallado, abierto y actualizado de la red de ferrocarriles, basado en OpenStreetMap. El dominio fue registrado el 27 de Abril de 2013 y el sitio web fue lanzado a mediados de 2013. Desde entonces, ha recibido mejoras constantes. En Febrero de 2014, el proyecto fue movido a un nuevo servidor. En Abril de 2014 se lanzó un nuevo mapa dedicado para teléfonos móviles.


OpenRailwayMap incluye todos los vehículos sobre raíles, por ejemplo: ferrocarriles, metros, tranvías, ferrocarriles en miniatura y funiculares. El mapa no incluye monorraíles y maglevs.


El nombre OpenRailwayMap mayoritariamente se refiere al mapa en línea, pero el proyecto también pretende apoyar a la información relacionada con el ferrocarril en OpenStreetMap. Desarrollando un modelo de datos consistente, proveyendo de listados de mail para discusiones, desarrollando plugins de edición, etc. la colección de estos datos es impulsada y la información es útil para otras aplicaciones y desarrolladores.

Motivación

OpenRailwayMap pretende proveer un nuevo mapa de ferrocarriles de calidad y ofrecer los siguientes beneficios:

  • Cobertura mundial: Hasta el momento, no había mapas de ferrocarriles que cubran el mundo entero, solo países concretos.
  • Código abierto y datos abiertos: Actualmente no hay mapas de redes de ferrocarriles que proporcionen no solo mapas renderizados, sino también los geodatos sin procesar. Todos los mapas actuales no ofrecen esa información mediante licencias gratuitas. Este proyecto está basado en los datos de OpenStreetMap los cuales son publicados mediante la Licencia Abierta de Base de Datos
  • Actualizado y detallado: Este mapa pretende beneficiarse del crowdsourcing. Mucha gente de todo el mundo con un buen conocimiento local puede editar este mapa para hacerlo detallado y actualizado.
  • OpenStreetMap: Hay muchos mapas basados en OpenStreetMap, por ejemplo, de ciclismo, navegación, transporte público, esquí y mucho más. Sin embargo, no existía un mapa de ferrocarriles.

Casos de uso

There are several good reasons for creating an open, comprehensive railway map of the world. Just some just cases:

  • Simulation: Detailed railroad data are an excellent source for simulating trains and signal boxes realisticly.
  • Research: Scientists and researchers can use the data to analyse the railroad network, simulate changes and use them for educational purposes.
  • Plans for model trains: This detailed railroad data are a good data source for railway enthusiasts, who want to build a railroad line as a model. With these data you do not need to record the railroad tracks anymore.
  • Enthusiasts: There are many people interested in railways, e.g. trainspotters. For those people this map provides a detailed information source of the railroad network.
  • Basemap for realtime traffic: Other applications can use this map to track the position of trains or to provide a realtime view of the trains' current position. You can also think of applications showing construction sites, detours, blockings and the traffic density.
  • Routing: With a detailed mapped railway infrastructure you could develop a routing application.
  • Public transport: This map and the data are an important data source for public transport applications like timetables, routing, ... .

Mapeo

For the average mapper mapping the railroad network is a bit more complicated than mapping streets or POIs, but there are some suitable ways of mapping:

  • Aerial imagery: Railroad tracks can easily be drawn based on aerial imagery, if high-resolution images are available for your area. With those imagery you can map even great yards simply from home. If you have access to very good high-resolution imagery (e.g. Aerowest), you can also see platforms or even signals.
  • In trains: In areas without high-resolution aerial imagery you can track the railroad lines with the GPS while sitting in the train. You should give attention to a sufficient GPS signal in the train to generate exact tracks (see WikiProject_Germany/Railway).
  • Along the railroad lines: Especially in rural areas the railroad lines can be accessed easily from ways parallel to the tracks. From there you can map signals or milestones fast, easy and safely. Crossings and bridges are also a good possibility to have a look at a part of the railroad line.
  • Stations: In stations you can map a lot of details easy to access and without risk.
  • Other sources: Public data, data sources with usage permission, use pictures from trainspotters or videos from the driver's cab after getting their permission,

Note: In all ways of mapping, you have to respect some rules:

  • Don't violate general laws: Don't enter railroad areas without permission, don't interrupt the railroad traffic, ... . Use just data you can get from public location (examples are mentioned some lines before)
  • Don't put yourself at risk
  • Don't use illegal, non-public, confidential or legally doubtful data sources
  • Don't violate copyright laws and don't copy from other maps

For newbies: You can donate data, but do not know, how to get into OSM? You have interesting information you can share, but no time to do this yourself? Contact us and send your data with permission so that we might be able do some mapping for you.

Features

    • for signals
    • for maximum track speeds
  • Numerous search features, stations, milestones and level crossings
  • Permalinks

Algunos ejemplos

Permissible speeds on the Frankfurt-Cologne high-speed railway line, near Frankfurt airport

There is still a long way to go for both the software and railway data. However, there are already some quite fine examples of OpenRailwayMap's quality:

Tagging

For mappers it is recommended to ignore the complex tagging scheme and to use the JOSM presets made for single countries. The presets simplify the complex and general tagging and help make it easier to edit without learning tags.

Country-specific tagging

There are lists of important objects in different countries with examples of how to tag them. Everybody can add a country or add examples to an existing country.

On these pages you can find country-specific information about mapping signals or working rules correctly. There are also some illustrated practical tagging examples. Everybody is invited to add more countries or add some examples for an existing country.


JOSM presets

For easier mapping you can use the JOSM preset files.

So far, one dedicated JOSM preset has been created. It is aimed at German railway lines and available in the preset directory. There is more information on JOSM tagging presets at the JOSM Tagging presets Wiki page.

Any further presets are very much appreciated. See Contribute.

Software

Search for railway line numbers and milestones
