The most recent of these projects is T1010 Cross-industry Remote Condition Monitoring, whose goal was to create a toolkit which could be used by parties wishing to share data across industry boundaries. The toolkit has 4 components, each addressing one of the constraints to such data sharing: • A Documentation Map (T1010-03). This shows where relevant standards and documents can be found and gives outline guidance into the use of the toolkit. • A Business Case Tool (T1010-04). This enables the costs and benefits of the data sharing initiative to be assessed, both overall and from the point of view of each of the stakeholders. This helps establish whether the exercise is worthwhile and informs the terms of the agreement between parties on sharing of costs. • A Data Architecture (T1010-01). This defines a process structure, open data standards and common sharing methods to address the technical issues around making data available in a usable way. • A Process Map and Template Contract (T1010-02). This sets out a process to work out the commercial principles, roles, and responsibilities for the participants; and provides a set of contract conditions and schedules that can form the basis of an agreement between the parties involved. Following the publication of T1010, industry consultation suggested that while it covered the necessary ground, it was not readily usable in its current state. RSSB recognise that T1010 was theoretical in nature and needed to be road-tested in actual data sharing projects. RSSB and XIRCM SG have identified an actual data sharing project whose stakeholders are keen to use a T1010-based approach because it offers the potential of simple future expansion in extent and scope and could form a template for future similar data sharing initiatives. The project is to pass to Network Rail Western Route track condition data gathered about their track by unattended track geometry monitoring (UTGM) equipment mounted on Crossrail Class 345 trains. These trains will run over NR Western infrastructure initially between Paddington and Heathrow Airport Junction, then later between Paddington and Reading. The purpose of this commission is to support RSSB / XIRCM SG and the key project stakeholders - Crossrail and Network Rail Western - in setting up this project by doing the following: • Advising them on the use of the T1010 toolkit to define the business case, determine an approach for commercial agreement, and address the technical challenges of this project. • Assisting them in setting up a prototype data broker to mediate the data exchange, demonstrating the key elements of the Data Bus approach.
