8. Rail and GIS – our awareness
1. The modernization and maintenance of a railway network is an extensive process -
of decades - that generates a colossal volume of related and diverse information
during it’s long life cycle;
2. All this valuable and different information is produced, processed (or not) and filed
(or not) during many years by generations of people across multiple organizations
(and reorganizations);
3. Information for itself it’s not equivalent to knowledge;
4. Both are indispensable and represent significant value, to infrastructure managers
and operators.
Conclusion: Using a Corporate Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) to
integrate information and build up the appropriated
applications to railway business is one of our key strategic
options.

13. Why a Cadastre Information System?
Conclusions:
- Accurate cadastre information is a significant input to other key activities of railway companies
(engineering, maintenance, operation, lease, …);
- A cadastre recovery process has an exponential ROI to the global business;
- Property means value! … if we know:
Integration
• what we have;
• where it is;
• which rights and responsibilities;
• what is essential and what is dispensable;
• what is the potential profitability;
• what are the opportunities and what we want to do with it;
Results
• …
- It’s not only a matter of gathering accurate information. The purpose is to deliver knowledge
to promote efficiency, effectiveness, cost reduction and best business results;
- It‘s worth it: it’s added value!

24. FBSIC – Accuracy and Efficiency
Data Integrity:
• Centralization of information;
• Validation of data quality (amount and form);
• Log into a relational database.
Data availability:
• Speed of access;
• Secure access to profile, functionality and design;
• Possibility of integration with other systems.
Usability of the data:
• Geographical and alphanumeric display;
• Generation of documentation;
• Analysis of efficiency indicators of the operational process.
Esri European User Conference October 26-28, 2011 - Madrid 24

25. FBSIC – Integration
The integrating nature of FBSIC allows:
• to accomplish present needs and scale to meet future services;
• to collect, maintain, manage and share all information in one common
platform, and transform it into knowledge;
• to relate with other platforms;
• to increase accuracy and productivity of business processes related with
property management.
Esri European User Conference October 26-28, 2011 - Madrid 25

26. Our experience
• It takes sometime to have a full and accurate data
base. But if the right priorities are taken, e.g. by Return
selecting relevant segments of network, then results D.B.
appear earlier and evolves in an exponential trend.
• Cadastre control (CC) contributes to cost-cutting:
taxation, liability, maintenance, …
• CC increases efficiency, effectiveness and or
cost/benefit optimization, related to key activities of
a railway operator or infrastructure manager:
engineering, maintenance, lease, network
Cadastre Control
upgrading, facilities, …
Property Strategic
Management Investment
• CC is a crucial topic for every organization that and
and
Operational
Cost/Benefit
manages railway infrastructure. Planning
Engineering Maintenance
• It’s worth it!
