Architecture Flow Definitions

amber and silver alert_ud  (Existing)  

Amber alert information to be placed on dynamic message signs controlled by a traffic management element or on the emergency alert system (EAS).

device control request  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Request for device control action

device data  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Data from detectors, environmental sensor stations, roadside equipment, and traffic control devices, including device inventory information.

device status  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Status information from devices

incident information  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

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.

remote surveillance control.  (Existing)  

The control commands used to remotely operate another center's sensors or surveillance equipment so that roadside surveillance assets can be shared by more than one agency.

road network conditions  (Planned)  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  (Planned)  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.

traffic images.  (Existing)  

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 the operational status of the surveillance system.
