Architecture Flow Definitions

alert notification  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Notification of a major emergency such as a natural or man–made disaster, civil emergency, or child abduction for distribution to the public. The flow identifies the alert originator, the nature of the emergency, the geographic area affected by the emergency, the effective time period, and information and instructions necessary for the public to respond to the alert. This flow may also identify specific information that should not be released to the public.

alert status  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information indicating the current status of the emergency alert including identification of the traveler and driver information systems that are being used to provide the alert.

emergency plan coordination  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information that supports coordination of emergency management plans, continuity of operations plans, emergency response and recovery plans, evacuation plans, and other emergency plans between agencies. This includes general plans that are coordinated prior to an incident and shorter duration tactical plans that are prepared during an incident.

emergency transit schedule information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information on transit schedule and service changes that adapt the service to better meet needs of responders and the general public in an emergency situation, including special service schedules supporting evacuation.

emergency transit service request  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Request to modify transit service and fare schedules to address emergencies, including requests for transit services to evacuate people from and/or deploy response agency personnel to an emergency scene. The request may poll for resource availability or request pre–staging, staging, or immediate dispatch of transit resources.

emergency transit service response  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Response indicating changes to transit service, fares, and/or restrictions that will be made and status of transit resources to be deployed to support emergency response and/or evacuation.

incident information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Notification of existence of incident and expected severity, location, time and nature of incident. As additional information is gathered and the incident evolves, updated incident information is provided. Incidents include any event that impacts transportation system operation ranging from routine incidents (e.g., disabled vehicle at the side of the road) through large–scale natural or human–caused disasters that involve loss of life, injuries, extensive property damage, and multi–jurisdictional response. This also includes special events, closures, and other planned events that may impact the transportation system.

incident response status  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Status of the current incident response including a summary of incident status and its impact on the transportation system, traffic management strategies implemented at the site (e.g., closures, diversions, traffic signal control overrides), and current and planned response activities.

threat information  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Threats regarding transportation infrastructure, facilities, or systems detected by a variety of methods (sensors, surveillance, threat analysis of advisories from outside agencies, etc.

transit and fare schedules  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Transit service information including routes, schedules, and fare information.

transit emergency data  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Initial notification of transit emergency at a transit stop or on transit vehicles and further coordination as additional details become available and the response is coordinated.

transit fare information  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information provided by transit management that supports fare payment transactions.

transit fare request  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Request for fare information and transit fare payment.

transit incident information  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information on transit incidents that impact transit services for public dissemination.

transit probe data  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Aggregate probe data derived from tracking transit vehicles. Data collected could include transit vehicle speeds and travel times for a given link or collection of links.

transit schedule adherence information  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Dynamic transit schedule adherence and transit vehicle location information.

transit system status assessment  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Assessment of damage sustained by the public transportation system including location and extent of the damage, current operational status including an estimate of remaining capacity and necessary restrictions, and time frame for repair and recovery.

transit trip plan  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

An origin–destination transit trip that may involve multiple modes and connections.

transit trip request  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Request for a transit trip plan that is responsive to traveler requirements such as schedule, cost, or duration.

transportation system status  (Existing)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current status and condition of transportation infrastructure (e.g., tunnels, bridges, interchanges, TMC offices, maintenance facilities). In case of disaster or major incident, this flow provides an assessment of damage sustained by the surface transportation system including location and extent of the damage, estimate of remaining capacity and necessary restrictions, and time frame for repair and recovery.

trip confirmation  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Acknowledgement by the driver/traveler of acceptance of a trip plan with associated personal and payment information required to confirm reservations.
