Architecture Flow Definitions
emergency traveler information (Existing) Applicable ITS Standards
Public notification of an emergency such as a natural or man-made disaster, civil emergency, or child abduction. This flow also includes evacuation information including evacuation instructions, evacuation zones, recommended evacuation times, tailored evacuation routes and destinations, traffic and road conditions along the evacuation routes, traveler services and shelter information, and reentry times and instructions.
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.
multimodal information (Existing) Applicable ITS Standards
Schedule information for alternate mode transportation providers such as train, ferry, air and bus.
parking information (Existing) Applicable ITS Standards
General parking information and status, including current parking availability.
road network conditions (Existing) Applicable ITS Standards
