National ITS Architecture Functional Requirements
associated with Kansas CVO Check Stations:

1. The roadside check facility equipment shall detect the presence of commercial vehicles and freight equipment approaching a facility. Sensors can differentiate between different types of vehicles and determine the number of axles, gross vehicle weight, and the identification of the vehicle and its cargo.
2. The roadside check facility equipment shall receive the credential and credentials status information (e.g. snapshots) from the commercial vehicle administration center to maintain an up to date list of which vehicles have been cleared (enrolled) to potentially pass through without stopping.
3. The roadside check facility equipment shall receive violation records from appropriate law enforcement agencies pertaining to commercial vehicles.
4. The roadside check facility equipment shall provide an interface to inspectors in the field to allow them to monitor and if necessary override the pull-in decisions made by the system.
5. The roadside check facility equipment shall request and input electronic screening data from the commercial vehicle's electronic tag data.
6. The roadside check facility equipment shall send a pass/pull-in notification to the commercial vehicle and its driver based on the information received from the vehicle, the administration center, enforcement agencies, and the inspector. The message may be sent to the on-board equipment in the commercial vehicle or transmitted to the driver using equipment such as dynamic message signs, red-green lights, flashing signs, etc.
7. The roadside check facility equipment shall send a record of daily activities at the facility including summaries of screening events and inspections to the commercial vehicle administration center.

1. The roadside check facility equipment shall detect the presence of commercial vehicles and freight equipment approaching a facility. Sensors can differentiate between different types of vehicles and determine the number of axles, gross vehicle weight, weight per axle, and the identification of the vehicle and its cargo.
2. The roadside check facility equipment shall request and input electronic screening data from the commercial vehicle's electronic tag data.
3. The roadside check facility equipment shall send a pass/pull-in notification to the commercial vehicle and its driver based on the information received from the vehicle and the measurements taken. The message may be sent to the on-board equipment in the commercial vehicle or transmitted to the driver using equipment such as dynamic message signs, red-green lights, flashing signs, etc.

1. The roadside check facility equipment shall receive information concerning commercial vehicles and freight equipment approaching a facility that are being pulled in for safety inspections.
2. The roadside check facility equipment shall receive the safety inspection and status information from the commercial vehicle administration center to include information such as safety ratings, inspection summaries, and violation summaries. Corresponds to the safety portion of CVISN "snapshots."
3. The roadside check facility equipment shall provide an interface to inspectors in the field to allow them to safety inspection data including overrides to the pull-in decisions made by the system.
4. The roadside check facility equipment shall request and input electronic safety data from the commercial vehicle's electronic tag data. This includes driver logs, on-board safety data, safety inspection records, commercial vehicle breach information, as well as freight equipment information.
5. The roadside check facility equipment shall send a pass/pull-in notification to the commercial vehicle and its driver based on the information received from the vehicle, the administration center, and the inspector. The message may be sent to the on-board equipment in the commercial vehicle or transmitted to the driver using equipment such as dynamic message signs, red-green lights, flashing signs, etc.
6. The roadside check facility equipment shall receive information about a breach or tamper event on a commercial vehicle or its attached freight equipment which includes identity, type of breach, location, and time.
7. The roadside check facility equipment shall forward results of the roadside safety inspections to the commercial vehicle administration center.

1. The roadside check facility equipment shall record the results of roadside inspections carried using an inspector's hand held terminal interface.
2. The roadside check facility equipment shall provide an interface for an inspector to add comments to the inspection results.
3. The roadside check facility equipment shall forward results of the roadside inspections to the commercial vehicle administration center either as needed or on a periodic (e.g. basis). These reports include accident reports, violation notifications, citations, and daily site activity logs.
