The document discusses a pilot project by DB AG and Akaparis GmbH to map railway stations indoor spaces using OpenStreetMap (OSM). The goals are to improve navigation for customers and utilize digital mapping. Phase A maps 4 stations in Germany to prove the concept. It develops an OSM data model and extensions for railway features. A web client visualizes the indoor maps. Phase B will focus on mapping elevators across stations to gain more experience. The results show OSM can effectively map multi-level indoor spaces like stairwells and stations. The organizers invite others to join and help expand coverage to more stations.

Migrate BI to APEX 5: Are We There Yet?Karen Cannell
In certain circumstances, the features offered by APEX Interactive Reports make APEX a viable and cost-effective replacement for an under-utilized business intelligence solution. The key is to know what features your users really need, and how your users use their data. If user, data and system requirements can be met by APEX IR, then the move makes sense. If not, then it doesn’t. It’s that simple. APEX 5 tips the scales with the new PIVOT action, improved GROUP BY and improved Dynamic Actions. Is it enough?

pythonOCC presentation at the 11th NASA-ESA Workshop on Product Data Exchange (http://step.nasa.gov/pde2009/).
Abstract : The combination of open-source software and open standards are known to be considered as a key success factor of further technology development. The interest around the STEP standard is growing these last years, since the release of Application Protocols that allow to foresee new software solutions able to ensure a consistent product data description covering the whole lifecycle. This presentation focuses on the features of a free 3D modeling/data exchange library in the context of a research work dealing with the STEP AP239 standard for PDM/ERP interoperability. The goal is to merge these two approaches and describe the product from design to manufacturing, with a granularity that allow to keep the control over product configuration.
Integrate Openstreetmapdata in Your OrganizationSafe Software
A showcase of different access methods of Openstreetmap (OSM) data. Considering the business requirements in terms of area of interest and specific OSM objects, three access methods are highlighted: the built-in OSM Reader; binary OSM-files and OSM OverPass API.
The presentation and comparison of the different OSM access methods is illustrated with three different use cases:
- Data extraction of pharmacies based on OSM-tags
- Data extraction to build a customized base map
- An FME Server App acting as a self-serving data download tool to extract OSM data on a worldwide scale.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

5. 2. Motivation, Goals and Challenges
Questions:
– How can we improve navigation through stations for our customers
(e.g. handicapped people, elder people, young families etc.)?
– How can digitalization help us to achieve this goal?
Goals
– Better information stream between operator and customer within railway stations, e.g. change of
platform or wagon order.
Challenges:
– Lots of DB Data, but in different context and not combinable (e.g. CAD, Images, Inspire)
– Several DB Maps, but not usable for purpose (e.g. zoom level)
– Lots of Data in OSM with strength on outdoor objects and / or no standard for objects in indoor areas
an design relations (e.g. Lift, stairways etc.)
– 5.600 train stations with a lot of change inside !!!
– Semi-public space, therefore suitable for OSM
– Interfaces and legal questions
Motivation for cooperation with Akaparis and presentation today:
– Proof of Concept: can OSM help to solve the problem (e.g. map a station indoor and show levels an
information in a specific context
7. 3.1. State-of-the-art:
OSM and Railway stations
Railway stations are mapped
already with existing tags
Similar to general buildings,
indoor is missing
Railway station specific features
are not introduced yet, e.g.
platform sections
with four railway stations, Berlin
Ostbahnhof, Berlin Südkreuz,
Dresden Hbf and Berlin
Jannowitzbrücke
8. 3.2. ORSM Data Model
OSM Indoor Modeling concepts and extensions
– Based on Simple Indoor Tagging,
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Simple_Indoor_Tagging
– stairwells and parts refined and extended
– doors refined and extended
Railway Station extensions
– Service Points, Service Centers, Lounge, platform sections
Take (OSM tool) visualization into account
Documentation
– http://www.openrailwaystationmap.org/0.1.1/datamodel/OpenRailwayStatio
nMapTags.docx
Composition of existing and extended features into a practical set to ease
the usage
– JOSM Preset
– Download http://www.openrailwaystationmap.org/0.1.1/datamodel/ORSM-
Pilot-datamodel.xml
Integration into OSM environment (wiki) as next step
12. 3.3. Data Visualization with OSM
Leaflet concepts and MapCSS with special efforts for area styling
for stairs (which requires already data model definitions); working
style for JSOM (see below)
Current clients on single OSM file basis, future on overpassAPI basis
Indoor requirements:
Higher zoom levels are
required, current max
is about 19/20, zoom
level 21-23 will be
required
Currently DB Style,
later generic style
13. 3.4. Tools
Although some mobile OSM tools, like Vespucci or OSMTracker exist, missing
GPS turns to current paper based solutions, (fieldpapers.org is an option, but
would require higher zoom levels), Tango will help!?!?
Intention: Capturing with Laser Distance Measurement Device, e.g. Aldi and
Bosch, low cost, 40-80 EUR
Editing with JOSM and plugin “Measurement”
14. 3.5.1. Web Client and Service
• Leafletjs extension with additional e.g. osmtojosm libs
• Current: publication of pilot data
• new work stream on OSM worldwide data flow
• Icon Zoom Clustering
20. 4. Phase B: Gain quantity experiences by a selected feature:
elevator
Lift as first good feature /
object to join the outside with
the inside OSM-world
2.200 Lifts
Published on open data portal
Enhancement for lift operating
status: missing georeferences
for about 900 lifts (due to
permanent change)
Cooperation with OSM
community an Open
knowledge foundation to
georeference them
Source: Google myMaps
22. 5. Conclusion
DB OSM Pilot proof of concept: successful
Strong visualization of levels with indoor and railway station specific
objects
–Stairwell with stairs, escalators and elevators of multiple levels
–Doors
Good solution for re-use in other buildings, e.g. hospitals
Cooperation with OSM Community to expand and to maintain is
necessary and welcomed
Work in progress – invitation to join up
Need to set up sub-community for Railway stations, e.g. other
countries?!
