Architecture Flow Definitions

environmental sensor data  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current road conditions (e.g., surface temperature, subsurface temperature, moisture, icing, treatment status) and surface weather conditions (e.g., air temperature, wind speed, precipitation, visibility) as measured and reported by fixed and/or mobile environmental sensors. Operational status of the sensors is also included.

environmental sensors control  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Data used to configure and control environmental sensors.

environmental situation data  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Aggregated and filtered vehicle environmental data collected from vehicle safety and convenience systems including measured air temperature, exterior light status, wiper status, sun sensor status, rain sensor status, traction control status, anti–lock brake status, and other collected vehicle system status and sensor information. This information flow represents the aggregated and filtered environmental data sets that are provided by the RSE to the back office center. Depending on the RSE configuration and implementation, the data set may also include environmental sensor station data collected by the RSE.

intersection control status  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Status data provided by the traffic signal controller including phase information, alarm status, and priority/preempt status.

mixed use crossing status  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current pedestrian and other mixed use crossing information including an indication of whether the call button has been activated, the current state of the mixed use crossing signal, and information indicating whether non–motorized users are currently occupying the cross walk.

personal location information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Pedestrian, bicyclist, and other non–motorized user locations at an intersection as detected and reported by an RSE.

restricted lanes application status  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current RSE application status that is monitored by the back office center including the operational state of the RSE, current configuration parameters, and a log of lane use (aggregate profiles of vehicles that checked in to the lane and reported vehicle speeds in the lanes) and RSE communications activity.

roadway dynamic signage data  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information used to initialize, configure, and control dynamic message signs. This flow can provide message content and delivery attributes, local message store maintenance requests, control mode commands, status queries, and all other commands and associated parameters that support remote management of these systems.

roadway dynamic signage status  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current operating status of dynamic message signs, highway advisory radios, or other configurable field equipment that provides dynamic information to the driver.

signal preemption request  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Direct request for preemption to a traffic signal controller that results in preemption of the current control plan and grants right–of–way to the requesting vehicle. This flow identifies the required phase and timing of the preemption. This flow may also cancel the preemption request (e.g., when the requesting vehicle clears the intersection).

signal priority service request  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

A service request for vehicle priority issued to a traffic signal controller that results in green extension or other accommodation for the priority vehicle, within the current signal timing plan. The request includes the priority level, the desired time and duration of service, and the intended travel path through the intersection. This flow also allows the RSE to cancel a previously issued request for priority.

signal service request  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

A call for service or extension for a signal control phase that is issued by the RSE for connected vehicles approaching an intersection and/or pedestrians at a crosswalk. This flow identifies the desired phase and service time.

traffic situation data  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current, aggregate traffic data collected from connected vehicles that can be used to supplement or replace information collected by roadside traffic detectors. It includes raw and/or processed reported vehicle speeds, counts, and other derived measures. Raw and/or filtered vehicle control events may also be included to support incident detection.

vehicle signage local data  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information provided by adjacent field equipment to support in–vehicle signing of dynamic information that is currently being displayed to passing drivers. This includes the dynamic information (e.g., current signal states, grade crossing information, local traffic and road conditions, detours, advisories, parking availability, etc.) and control parameters that identify the desired timing, duration, and priority of the signage data.
