DeckEntrance ​

A DeckEntrance is an entrance to or within a Deck.

In the current NeTEx DeckPlan examples DeckEntrance connections are modelled via special DeckEntranceCouple elements. However this method is very verbose and leads to data duplications, see:

Therefore in this data structure a DeckEntrance is simply modeled in one of the rooms it belongs to and referenced from the other room.

Simple example pseudo code:

<DeckSpace id="A">
  <deckEntrances>
    <DeckEntrance id="1">
<DeckSpace id="B">
  <deckEntrances>
    <DeckEntranceRef ref="2">

The properties below are general properties that any DeckEntrance provides.
