Wayside Equipment --> Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment:
arriving train information
Definitions
arriving train information (Information Flow): Information for a train approaching a highway-rail intersection that may include direction and allow calculation of approximate arrival time and closure duration.
Wayside Equipment (Source Physical Object): 'Wayside Equipment' represents train interface equipment (usually) maintained and operated by the railroad and (usually) physically located at or near a grade crossing. It is a source and destination for information for, or about, approaching trains and their crews (e.g. the time at which the train will arrive and the time it will take to clear a crossing, crossing status or warnings, etc.). Generally one wayside equipment interface would be associated with one highway rail intersection. However, multiple crossings may be controlled using information based on data from one wayside equipment interface.
Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment (Destination Physical Object): 'Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment' (CV RSE) represents the Connected Vehicle roadside devices (i.e., Roadside Units (RSUs)) equipped with short range wireless (SRW) communications technology, as well as any other supporting equipment that leverage the RSU and are not described by other objects (e.g., a local roadside processor). CVRSE are used to send messages to, and receive messages from, nearby vehicles and personal devices equipped with compatible communications technology. Communications with adjacent field equipment and back office centers that monitor and control the RSE are also supported. This device operates from a fixed position and may be permanently deployed or a portable device that is located temporarily in the vicinity of a traffic incident, road construction, or a special event. It includes a processor, data storage, and communications capabilities that support secure communications with passing vehicles, other field equipment, and centers.

Interoperability | Description |
---|---|
Local | In cases where an interface is normally encapsulated by a single stakeholder, interoperability is still desirable, but the motive is vendor independence and the efficiencies and choices that an open standards-based interface provides. |

Basis | Trains arriving should be visible, viewable and certainly not concealed. | This flow is an intermediate to the end user, but may also be used by an intermediary process for some other action. Regardless, it forms the basis for providing data that, if incorrect, could lead to a catastrophic mistake. | This flow is an intermediate to the end user, but may also be used by an intermediary process for some other action. Regardless, it forms the basis for providing data that, if incorrect, could lead to a catastrophic mistake. Since this flow can lead to other actions with other effects, HIGH is justifiable. |
