National ITS Architecture Functional Requirements
associated with VDOT Critical Infrastructure Security System:
Emergency Secure Area Surveillance
- The center shall monitor maintenance status of the security sensor field equipment.
- The center shall respond to control data from center personnel regarding security surveillance data collection, processing, threat detection, and image matching.
- The center shall exchange traveler images with other emergency management centers to support traveler image matching.
- The center shall exchange surveillance data with other emergency centers.
- The center shall remotely monitor video images and audio surveillance data collected in traveler secure areas, which include transit stations, transit stops, rest areas, park and ride lots, and other fixed sites along travel routes (e.g., emergency pull-off areas and travel information centers). The data may be raw or pre-processed in the field.
- The center shall remotely monitor video images and audio surveillance data collected in secure areas including facilities (e.g. transit yards) and transportation infrastructure (e.g. bridges, tunnels, interchanges, roadway infrastructure, and transit railways or guideways). The data may be raw or pre-processed in the field.
- The center shall collect data from centers.
- The center shall collect data catalogs from one or more data sources. A catalog describes the data contained in the collection of archived data and may include descriptions of the schema or structure of the data, a description of the contents of the data; e.g., time range of entries, number of entries; or a sample of the data (e. g. a thumbnail).
- The center shall store collected data in an information repository.
- The center shall perform quality checks on collected data.
- The center shall notify the system operator of errors related to data collection, analysis and archival.
- The center shall respond to requests from the administrator interface function to manage the archive data.
- The center shall include capabilities for archive to archive coordination.
- The center shall respond to requests for archive data from archive data users (centers, field devices).
- The center shall collect silent and audible alarms received from travelers in secure areas (such as transit stops, rest areas, park and ride lots, modal interchange facilities).
- The center shall determine whether the alarm message indicates an emergency that requires the attention of public safety agencies, and forward alarm message data to the appropriate agency as necessary.
- The center shall forward the alarm message to center personnel and respond to the traveler or transit vehicle operator as directed by the personnel.
- The center shall maintain the status of the security sensor field equipment.
- The center shall remotely monitor and control security sensor data collected in secure areas including facilities (e.g. transit yards) and transportation infrastructure (e.g. bridges, tunnels, interchanges, roadway infrastructure, and transit railways or guideways). The types of security sensor data include environmental threat (e.g. chemical agent, toxic industrial chemical, biological, explosives, and radiological sensors), infrastructure condition and integrity, intrusion and motion, and object detection sensors. The data may be raw or pre-processed in the field.
- The center shall remotely monitor and control security sensor data collected in traveler secure areas, which include transit stations, transit stops, rest areas, park and ride lots, and other fixed sites along travel routes (e.g., emergency pull-off areas and travel information centers). The types of security sensor data include environmental threat (e.g. chemical agent, toxic industrial chemical, biological, explosives, and radiological sensors), intrusion and motion, and object detection sensors. The data may be raw or pre-processed in the field.
- The center shall exchange security sensor data with other emergency centers.
- The center shall respond to control data from center personnel regarding security sensor data collection, processing, threat detection, and threat analysis.
