    Emergency Management for Virginia SWR ITS Architecture
    • Monitor traffic sensor and surveillance systems remotely to detect and verify incidents.
    • Report identified incidents to operations personnel and other centers.
    • Formulate an incident response that takes into account the incident potential, incident impacts, and/or resources required for incident management including proposing and facilitating the dispatch of emergency response and service vehicles.
    • Coordinate incident response with all appropriate cooperating agencies.
    • Control traffic signal controllers remotely to implement traffic management strategies at signalized intersections based on traffic conditions, incidents, emergency vehicle preemptions, pedestrian crossings, etc.
    • Disseminate traffic-related data to other centers, the media, and travelers via the driver information systems (DMS, HAR).
    • Develop, coordinate with emergency management and other traffic management centers, and execute special traffic management strategies during evacuation and subsequent reentry of a population in the vicinity of a disaster or major emergency.
    • Monitor external advisory and incident reporting systems, intermodal freight depots, and border crossings for incident information.

    Freeway Management for Virginia SWR ITS Architecture
    • Share traffic information with other traffic management centers.
    • Monitor and remotely diagnose field equipment issues including detecting failures, issuing problem reports, and tracking the repair or replacement of failed equipment.
    • Monitor traffic sensors and surveillance (CCTV) equipment.
    • Disseminate traffic-related data to other centers, the media, and travelers via the driver information systems (DMS, HAR).
    • Collect current traffic conditions from sensors and surveillance equipment.
    • Distribute current traffic conditions to other centers.
    • Operate and maintain field equipment that controls and sends data to other field equipment (such as environmental sensors that send data to a DMS or coordination between traffic controllers on adjacent intersections), without being controlled from a center.
    • Control traffic signal controllers remotely to implement traffic management strategies at signalized intersections based on traffic conditions, incidents, emergency vehicle preemptions, pedestrian crossings, etc.
    • Allow control of field equipment by other traffic management centers.
    • Control ramp meters, interchange connector meters, lane control signals, mainline meters, and variable speed control systems remotely.
    • Monitor traffic conditions using field equipment (i.e. loop detectors and CCTV cameras).
