Tools and functions
Transportation Network CH provides several tools to enable users to combine their spatial mobility and transport infrastructure data in a highly automated manner. These are currently being developed incrementally. Use of the tools is free of charge.
Highly automated linking of transport network data
The combination of transport network data via the Transportation Network CH tools usually takes place in several steps: First, the data is linked to the basic network via the “Matcher”. The data can then be edited and published in the “Configurator” as specialised networks. Finally, the “Combiner” is used to link to other transport network data.
Already implemented
Digital representation of all roads, railways, waterways and cableways in Switzerland and Liechtenstein.
Status: available for download. Updated periodically. Planned to be available as a service and maintained continuously.

Tools in development
Function: Reference geodata to the basic network and compare specialised data with the basic network
Status: beta version available for selected users, usability and performance optimisations in progress
Function: Define, publish, automatically process and manage new specialised networks
Status: in development
Function: Merge data from two or more specialised networks into a network combination
Status: in development
Function: Map application for manually adjusting or correcting specialised networks
Status: implemented for the basic network (for administrators), later also available for users and their specialised networks
