Roberto is a tool that enables users to calculate and view a large number of interval, crossover, and buffer times of trains. Interval and crossover times not only play a role when compiling timetables, but they are also important to infrastructure developers, as designers want to create layouts that enable interval and crossover times to be as short as possible while maintaining adequate safety levels.
The purpose of Roberto is to automate the calculation of interval and crossover times by using digital sources that have recently become available, such as infra atlas.
Roberto performs its calculations based on data such as infrastructure, train data, and clear-run trip times. The calculated times can be visualised in Roberto, enabling the user to check and review them. The calculated times can also be exported to allow them to be used in other applications or documents.
