Claim 0:
1. A supervision infrastructure of a multimodal terrestrial transport network, wherein the multimodal terrestrial transport network includes at least one first monomodal network and a second monomodal network, wherein each of the first and second monomodal networks is equipped with an individual operating system, wherein the supervision infrastructure comprises a plurality of first computers, each first computer being associated with a corresponding interchange station, where lines of the first and second monomodal networks are interconnected so as to allow passenger to transfer between a first vehicle circulating on the first monomodal network and a second vehicle circulating on the second monomodal network, wherein each first computer is configured to:
by a first communication interface, communicate with the operating systems of the first and second monomodal networks;
provide an overview of the traffic in a monitoring area associated with each first computer and cover the first and second monomodal networks at least around the corresponding interchange station, so as to update the overview data based on traffic data provided by the operating systems of the first and second monomodal networks; and
execute operating rules based on the overview data and generate an instruction including operating information so as to modify the traffic within a control area associated with each first computer,
wherein the first communications interface transmits the instruction to one of the operating systems of the first and second monomodal networks,
wherein each first computer is configured from a generic first computer based on a function of the corresponding interchange station with which each first computer is associated,
wherein the corresponding interchange station is associated with the monitoring area, and the traffic data acquired by each first computer relates to events occurring within the monitoring area, and
wherein the corresponding interchange station is associated with the control area and the instructions generated by each first computer provide for modification of the traffic within the control area.
