Abstract

L'objectif de l'invention est de créer une station de commande de trafic et un procédé pour faire fonctionner une station de commande de trafic permettant de manipuler tout le flux de données des composants influençant le trafic situés dans une zone de trajet et de le traiter sélectivement en fonction des besoins en information du personnel de la station de commande. A cet effet, (a) les composants influençant le trafic sont reliés à un ordinateur pilote pour recevoir et/ou transmettre des données ; (b) les données reçues par les composants influençant le trafic sont comparées dans l'ordinateur pilote avec les données dernièrement reçues par les composants respectifs ; (c) les données ou les éléments de données qui diffèrent des données dernièrement reçues sont extraites en tant que données de mise à jour ; et (d) des abonnements à des données définissables par les utilisateurs permettent d'accéder uniquement à des données de mise à jour définies dans l'abonnement aux données respectif. On obtient ainsi une station de commande de trafic qui, au moyen de l'ordinateur pilote, reçoit tout le flux de données et le réduit à la partie pertinente pour le traitement ultérieur d'après une modification de données survenant par rapport à un ensemble de données stockées. Les abonnements à des données permettent également de choisir de façon très sélective dans la station de commande de trafic les données parmi les données pertinentes pour le traitement ultérieur (données de mise à jour) qui doivent être communiquées ou, d'une autre manière, traitées ultérieurement pour satisfaire les besoins actuels en information du personnel de la station de commande.
