Missing definition/reference: Primary Location

[gdschut]

It seems Primary Location means "PLC" as used in TSI TAF/TAP (Telemetics soon), but it lacks a proper definition/link to this concept.

Proposal: Refer to Sector Handbook definition:

Definition of Primary Location

Primary Location is a place used by IM to define a path for a train in TAF/TAP TSI framework/messages. This location is a rail point inside the rail network where train starts, ends, stops, or runs through or change line. This location must be managed by an Infrastructure Manager (IM) identified by company code. Primary locations are for example: stations, yards, halts, handover points, border points, open access terminals. Primary locations are identified by single and unique Primary Location codes. Primary location code is allocated based on processes defined by national entity. Primary location codes are used in any kind of TAF/TAP communication.

Thank you Gerben for your contribution. The definition was added along with a reference to the TAF and TAP TSIs sector handbook. The ontology documentation will be updated
