Idaho Transportation Department District 3 Maintenance Shop to Third-Party Transportation Information Service Providers Interface Diagram

Architecture Flow Definitions

air quality information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Aggregated region–wide measured air quality data and possible pollution incident information.

alternate mode information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Schedule information for alternate mode transportation providers such as air, ferry, and passenger–carrying heavy rail.

broadcast traveler information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

General traveler information that contains traffic and road conditions, link travel times, incidents, advisories, restrictions, transit service information, weather information, parking information, and other related traveler information.

current infrastructure restrictions  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Restrictions levied on transportation asset usage based on infrastructure design, surveys, tests, or analyses. This includes standard facility design height, width, and weight restrictions, special restrictions such as spring weight restrictions, and temporary facility restrictions that are imposed during maintenance and construction.

fare and price information  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current transit, parking, and toll fee schedule information.

incident information for public  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Report of current desensitized incident information prepared for public dissemination.

interactive traveler information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Traveler information provided in response to a traveler request. The provided information includes traffic and road conditions, advisories, incidents, payment information, transit services, parking information, weather information, and other travel–related data updates and confirmations.

logged vehicle routes  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Anticipated route information for guided vehicles, special vehicles (e.g., oversize vehicles) or groups of vehicles (e.g., governor's motorcade) that may require changes in traffic control strategy.

maint and constr work plans  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Future construction and maintenance work schedules and activities including anticipated closures with anticipated impact to the roadway, alternate routes, anticipated delays, closure times, and durations.

parking information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

General parking information and status, including current parking availability, parking pricing, and parking space availability information.

road network conditions  (Existing)  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.

road weather information  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Road conditions and weather information that are made available by road maintenance operations to other transportation system operators.

roadway maintenance status  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Summary of maintenance fleet operations affecting the road network. This includes the status of winter maintenance (snow plow schedule and current status).

traffic control information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Represents the flow of traffic control and status information from a TMC to a third party TIC. This is reporting only, not actual control.

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.

transit service information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Transit service information including routes, schedules, and fare information as well as dynamic transit schedule adherence and transit vehicle location information.

transportation operational strategies  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Operational strategies for each operating agency in a transportation corridor, downtown area, or other travel–impacted area, providing an integrated operations strategy for the freeways, tollways, arterials, transit services, parking facilities, and other transportation–related facilities in the area. These strategies can include dynamic adjustments to transit fares and tolls, parking fees and restrictions, dynamic lane restriction changes, and other active demand management strategies.

traveler alerts  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Traveler information alerts reporting congestion, incidents, adverse road or weather conditions, parking availability, transit service delays or interruptions, and other information that may impact the traveler. Relevant alerts are provided based on traveler–supplied profile information including trip characteristics and preferences.

traveler request  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

A request for traveler information including traffic, transit, toll, parking, road weather conditions, event, and passenger rail information. The request identifies the type of information, the area of interest, parameters that are used to prioritize or filter the returned information, and sorting preferences.

work zone information  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Summary of maintenance and construction work zone activities affecting the road network including the nature of the maintenance or construction activity, location, impact to the roadway, expected time(s) and duration of impact, anticipated delays, alternate routes, and suggested speed limits. This information may be augmented with images that provide a visual indication of current work zone status and traffic impacts.
