Abstract

The paper presents an experience of verifying a large scale, real-life dataset describing various aspects of railway station design. We discuss how a number of assorted digital artefacts were pooled together and converted into a set-theoretic model over which a type inference procedure is run. The typed model is then used to confirm or contradict logical conjectures over data elements. We employ a number of state-of-the-art SMT solvers as a verification back-end. The project is ongoing but has already identified a number of issues in topology definition and signalling data that were missed by other automated tests and not revealed by simulation tools.
