Municipal/County Traffic Operations Center to Municipal Field Sensors Interface Diagram

Architecture Flow Definitions

environmental sensor data  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current road conditions (e.g., surface temperature, subsurface temperature, moisture, icing, treatment status) and surface weather conditions (e.g., air temperature, wind speed, precipitation, visibility) as measured and reported by fixed and/or mobile environmental sensors. Operational status of the sensors is also included.

environmental sensors control  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Data used to configure and control environmental sensors.

passive vehicle monitoring control  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Control commands used to control detection systems that rely on infrastructure-based identification of individual vehicles to measure travel times and other related measures by identifying the same vehicle at different points in the network. Related technologies include bluetooth readers and license plate recognition systems.

passive vehicle monitoring data  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Time stamped identifiers that identify the vehicles that have passed through a detection zone.

right-of-way request notification  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Notice that a request has occurred for signal prioritization, signal preemption, pedestrian call, multi-modal crossing activation, or other source for right-of-way.

signal control device configuration  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Data used to configure traffic signal control equipment including local controllers and system masters.

stop sign gap assist control  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Configuration and control of detectors that monitor traffic on the major road and signs that provide stop sign gap assist alerts and warnings to vehicles on the minor road.

stop sign gap assist status  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

The current operational state and status of the field controller, sensors, and signs that support the stop sign gap assist application.

traffic detector control  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Information used to configure and control traffic detector systems such as inductive loop detectors and machine vision sensors.

traffic detector data  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Raw and/or processed traffic detector data which allows derivation of traffic flow variables (e.g., speed, volume, and density measures) and associated information (e.g., congestion, potential incidents). This flow includes the traffic data and the operational status of the traffic sensor system.
