Validation of reference laboratories to put in service Railway projects (tracks and trains)

Abstract

The Railway Interoperability Laboratory of CEDEX contributes to the process of placing Railway projects into service using reference tools loaded with project data and with real equipment connected. This strategy provides a more efficient and controlled environment, assures the interoperability of the project and facilitates the integration track/ train. The validation of the Laboratory by comparing track and laboratory records makes acceptable the laboratory tests for the safety departments of the Infrastructure Managers and Operators. This communication provides an overview of the process of the laboratory validation.
