Architecture Flow Definitions

data query publication  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Data query publication includes those dialogs necessary to satisfy the response portion of a query–response action using the data distribution architecture. The information content varies widely based on available content and the query, but it generally includes information on the state of transportation system operations including traffic and road conditions, advisories, incidents, transit service information, weather information, parking information, and other related data.

demand responsive transit plan  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Plan regarding overall demand responsive transit schedules and deployment.

demand responsive transit request  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Request for paratransit support.

emergency transit schedule information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information on transit schedule and service changes that adapt the service to better meet needs of responders and the general public in an emergency situation, including special service schedules supporting evacuation.

incident information  (Existing)  

Notification of existence of incident and expected severity, location, time and nature of incident. As additional information is gathered and the incident evolves, updated incident information is provided. Incidents include any event that impacts transportation system operation ranging from routine incidents (e.g., disabled vehicle at the side of the road) through large–scale natural or human–caused disasters that involve loss of life, injuries, extensive property damage, and multi–jurisdictional response. This also includes special events, closures, and other planned events that may impact the transportation system.

logged vehicle routes  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Anticipated route information for guided vehicles, special vehicles (e.g., oversize vehicles) or groups of vehicles (e.g., governor's motorcade) that may require changes in traffic control strategy.

road network conditions  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current and forecasted traffic information, road and weather conditions, and other road network status. Either raw data, processed data, or some combination of both may be provided by this flow. Information on diversions and alternate routes, closures, and special traffic restrictions (lane/shoulder use, weight restrictions, width restrictions, HOV requirements) in effect is included.

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.

transit and fare schedules  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Transit service information including routes, schedules, and fare information.

transit fare information  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information provided by transit management that supports fare payment transactions.

transit incident information  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information on transit incidents that impact transit services for public dissemination.

transit probe data  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Aggregate probe data derived from tracking transit vehicles. Data collected could include transit vehicle speeds and travel times for a given link or collection of links.

transit schedule adherence information  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Dynamic transit schedule adherence and transit vehicle location information.

trip confirmation  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Acknowledgement by the driver/traveler of acceptance of a trip plan with associated personal and payment information required to confirm reservations.
