Definitions

traffic image meta data (Information Flow): Meta data that describes traffic images. Traffic images (video) are in another flow.

Other Traffic Management Centers (Source Physical Object): Representing another Traffic Management Center, 'Other Traffic Management Centers' is intended to provide a source and destination for information exchange between peer (e.g. inter-regional) traffic management functions. It enables traffic management activities to be coordinated across different jurisdictional areas.

Traffic Management Center (Destination Physical Object): The 'Traffic Management Center' monitors and controls traffic and the road network. It represents centers that manage a broad range of transportation facilities including freeway systems, rural and suburban highway systems, and urban and suburban traffic control systems. It communicates with ITS Roadway Equipment and Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment (RSE) to monitor and manage traffic flow and monitor the condition of the roadway, surrounding environmental conditions, and field equipment status. It manages traffic and transportation resources to support allied agencies in responding to, and recovering from, incidents ranging from minor traffic incidents through major disasters.

Communication Solutions

Solutions are sorted in ascending Gap Severity order. The Gap Severity is the parenthetical number at the end of the solution.

Selected Solution

US: TMDD - NTCIP Messaging

Solution Description

This solution is used within Canada and the U.S.. It combines standards associated with US: TMDD with those for C-C: NTCIP Messaging. The US: TMDD standards include upper-layer standards required to implement center-to-center communications with traffic management systems. The C-C: NTCIP Messaging standards include lower-layer standards that support partially secure communications between two centers as commonly used in the US.

Interoperability	Description
Regional	Interoperability throughout the geopolitical region is highly desirable, but if implemented differently in different transportation management jurisdictions, significant benefits will still accrue in each jurisdiction. Regardless, this Information Flow Triple should be implemented consistently within a transportation jurisdiction (i.e., the scope of a regional architecture).

Security

Information Flow Security
	Confidentiality	Integrity	Availability
Rating	Low	Moderate	Moderate
Basis	Traffic image data is generally intended for public consumption, and in any event is already video captured in the public arena, so this must be LOW.	While accuracy of this data is important for decision making purposes, applications should be able to cfunction without it. Thus MODERATE generally.	While accuracy of this data is important for decision making purposes, applications should be able to function without it. Thus MODERATE generally.
