Physical Object: Commercial Vehicle OBE

CV On-Board Cargo Monitoring

Overview

'CV On-Board Cargo Monitoring' monitors the location and status of the commercial vehicle and its cargo. It sends the collected data to appropriate centers and roadside facilities, including emergency management in the case of HAZMAT incidents. Depending on the nature of the cargo, it may include sensors that measure temperature, pressure, load leveling, acceleration, and other attributes of the cargo.

This functional object is included in the "Commercial Vehicle OBE" physical object.

Requirements

# Requirement
01 The commercial vehicle shall compute the location of the commercial vehicle and its freight equipment.
02 The commercial vehicle shall monitor on-board systems and record measures such as weight, vehicle security status, vehicle safety status, vehicle identity, driver status, driver safety status, distance traveled, and brake condition.
03 The commercial vehicle shall monitor information concerning the freight equipment including cargo type, HAZMAT designation (if any) for the cargo, cargo weight, the type of container in which the cargo is held, safety condition of the cargo.
04 The commercial vehicle shall forward information concerning the freight equipment on to its fleet and freight management center as well as the roadside check facility.
05 The commercial vehicle shall send notification of a hazmat spill to the appropriate emergency management center in case of an incident including the information from cargo sensors, vehicle location, and the carrier identification.
06 The commercial vehicle shall send notification of a hazmat spill to and share them with the arriving public safety vehicles, including the information from cargo sensors, vehicle location, and the carrier identification.
07 The commercial vehicle shall provide status of the electronic seal on a container, including sealing time, location, and authority, and any openings or tampering to field check devices.
08 The commercial vehicle shall send information from on-board safety systems, including its cargo or freight equipment, to roadside facilities.
09 The commercial vehicle shall provide an interface with the driver to be presented with and respond to alerts, either visual or audible, concerning the safety and security of the vehicle and its cargo. Alerts and messages specific to commercial vehicles include trucks not advised on a route, trucks over 10 tons not allowed on bridge, route details, detected route deviations and warning indications detected by on-board sensors (e.g., safety) and freight equipment sensors (e.g., breach, cargo).
10 The commercial vehicle shall provide a mechanism for an operator to manually enter the contents of a freight container into onboard equipment.
11 The commercial vehicle shall send on-board systems data passing connected vehicles, including emergency vehicles.
12 The commercial vehicle shall accepts requests for identification data needed to support electronic screening.
