Architecture Flow Definitions

lane management control  (Future)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information used to configure and control dynamic lane management systems.

lane management information  (Future)  Applicable ITS Standards

System status of managed lanes including current operational state, violations, and logged information. This includes lane usage information including both traditional traffic flow measures and special information associated with managed lanes such as measured passenger occupancies. It also includes the operational status of the lane management equipment.

passive vehicle monitoring control  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Control commands used to control detection systems that rely on infrastructure–based identification of individual vehicles to measure travel times and other related measures by identifying the same vehicle at different points in the network. Related technologies include Bluetooth readers and license plate recognition systems.

passive vehicle monitoring data  (Future)  Applicable ITS Standards

Time stamped identifiers that identify the vehicles that have passed through a detection zone.

roadway dynamic signage data  (Future)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information used to initialize, configure, and control dynamic message signs. This flow can provide message content and delivery attributes, local message store maintenance requests, control mode commands, status queries, and all other commands and associated parameters that support remote management of these systems.

roadway dynamic signage status  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current operating status of dynamic message signs, highway advisory radios, or other configurable field equipment that provides dynamic information to the driver.

shoulder management information  (Future)  Applicable ITS Standards

System status including current operational state, violations and logged information.

traffic detector control  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information used to configure and control traffic detector systems such as inductive loop detectors and machine vision sensors.

traffic detector data  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Raw and/or processed traffic detector data which allows derivation of traffic flow variables (e.g., speed, volume, and density measures) and associated information (e.g., congestion, potential incidents). This flow includes the traffic data and the operational status of the traffic sensor system.

traffic images  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

High fidelity, real–time traffic images suitable for surveillance monitoring by the operator or for use in machine vision applications. This flow includes the images and meta data that describes the images.

video surveillance control  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information used to configure and control video surveillance systems.
