Abstract:
A method for checking at least one information data set for a composition of at least one consist, comprising the steps of:determining a first configuration of a currently observed consist of the at least one consist;comparing the first configuration of the currently observed consist with a second configuration corresponding to the at least one information data set;if the first configuration precisely corresponds to the second configuration, assigning the second configuration to the first configuration of the currently observed consist;if the first configuration does not match the second configuration, generating a first error message;if the first configuration does not match the second configuration or if more than one configuration matches the second configuration, assigning a third configuration corresponding to a first data set of the at least one information data set to the first configuration of the currently observed consist, the first data set including at least one individually identified car; andif the first configuration precisely corresponds to the second configuration and if the currently observed consist does not include the at least one individually identified car, generating a second error message.
