Physical Object: Traffic Management Center
TMC Roadway Equipment Monitoring
Overview
'TMC Roadway Equipment Monitoring' monitors the operational status of field equipment and detects failures. It presents field equipment status to Traffic Operations Personnel and reports failures to the Maintenance and Construction Management Center. It tracks the repair or replacement of the failed equipment. The entire range of ITS field equipment may be monitored including sensors (traffic, infrastructure, environmental, security, speed, etc.) and devices (highway advisory radio, dynamic message signs, automated roadway treatment systems, barrier and safeguard systems, cameras, traffic signals and override equipment, ramp meters, beacons, security surveillance equipment, etc.).
This functional object is included in the "Traffic Management Center" physical object.
This functional object is included in the following service packages:
- ST02: Eco-Traffic Signal Timing
- TM03: Traffic Signal Control
- TM04: Connected Vehicle Traffic Signal System
- TM05: Traffic Metering
This functional object is mapped to the following Functional View PSpecs:
Requirements
| # | Requirement |
|---|---|
| 01 | The center shall collect and store sensor (traffic, pedestrian, multimodal crossing) operational status. |
| 02 | The center shall collect and store CCTV surveillance system (traffic, pedestrian) operational status. |
| 03 | The center shall collect and store sensor (traffic, pedestrian, multimodal crossing) fault data and send to the maintenance center for repair. |
| 04 | The center shall collect and store CCTV surveillance system (traffic, pedestrian) fault data send to the maintenance center for repair. |
| 05 | The center shall collect environmental sensor operational status. |
| 06 | The center shall collect environmental sensor equipment fault data and send to the maintenance center for repair. |
| 07 | The center shall exchange data with maintenance centers concerning the reporting of faulty equipment and the schedule/status of their repair. Information exchanged includes details of new equipment faults, and clearances when the faults are cleared. |
