Professional rail traffic services
Fintraffic is electrifying the communication procedures used in railway traffic. The KUPLA application allows for electronic communication between the train driver and traffic control and traffic management systems. The RUMA application improves the safety of track work by locating track teams and digitising current printed forms (such as the RT and LR notifications), so that the traffic controller and the person in charge of track work always have the same information concerning the track work available. The LIIKE system is used to manage the track’s capacity. Its users include railway traffic operators as well as traffic control and persons processing capacity requests.
Train & locomotive drivers: KUPLA application
The KUPLA device is the most important tool for any train or locomotive driver. All driving information relevant to the driving assignment, such as advance announcements, traffic control announcements, timetable, assembly information and other relevant information is provided with the device. The use of KUPLA is required in all scheduled railway traffic in Finland.
Railway contractors: RUMA application
There is a separate mobile platform designed for railway contractors, the RUMA application. It improves the safety of track work by locating track teams and digitising current printed forms (such as the RT and LR notifications). This provides the traffic controller and the person in charge of track work with the same information concerning the track work at all times. In addition, the aim of the mobile platform is to develop the capacity management of railway maintenance.
Railway traffic operators: LIIKE application
The LIIKE system is used to control track capacity. Its users include railway traffic operators as well as traffic control and persons processing capacity requests. The purpose of the system is to provide a platform for the flexible application and allocation of railway capacity in Finland to railway traffic operators.
