More transparency and efficiency
ÖBB-Infrastruktur AG provides Railway Undertakings (RUs) with detailed information on past train journeys and train runs with the “Historical train journeys data provision” service. The data is provided retrospectively for entire operating days. The service supports RUs in analysing and optimising operational processes in a targeted manner. In view of the growing demands on the rail system in terms of stability, punctuality and resource efficiency, the data service promotes sustainable improvements and well-founded operational decisions.
