Includes Information Flows:

Information Flow	Description
ITS information	Information exchanged by ITS systems or devices. This flow is a super-flow; it does not define specific content since it represents any information flow exchange between physical objects defined in ARC-IT. This information flow represents any of those information flows and inherits the data content and attributes defined in the more detailed information flows.
local ITS information	ITS information that is relevant to a particular location (e.g., a particular intersection) that is of interest to receivers near that location. This flow is a super-flow; it does not define specific content since it represents any information flow exchange using short range communications between physical objects defined in ARC-IT. This includes both broadcast communications to all receivers within range and unicast communications targeted for a specific receiver. This information flow represents any of those information flows and inherits the data content and attributes defined in the more detailed information flows.
local ITS information relay	Local ITS information that is relayed to improve range, reliability, and/or performance. This flow is a super-flow; it does not define specific content since it represents any relay of 'local ITS information' using short range communications. See 'local ITS information' for more information.
proxied ITS information	Information exchanged by ITS systems or devices where the sender is isolated from the receiver by an intermediary that acts as a proxy for the sender. This flow is a super-flow; it does not define specific content since it represents any information flow exchange between physical objects defined in ARC-IT. This information flow represents any of those information flows and inherits the data content and attributes defined in the more detailed information flows.
wide area broadcast ITS information	ITS information of broad interest that is relevant over a wide area and suitable for broadcast distribution. This flow is a super-flow; it does not define specific content since it represents all wide-area broadcast information flows defined in ARC-IT. This information flow represents any of those broadcast information flows and inherits the data content and attributes defined in the more detailed information flows.

Wide Area Information Disseminator System	Other ITS Objects	wide area broadcast ITS information	By definition this is publicly broadcast data.	The distribution of this data is intended to be very large, as such the impact of corrupted data will be significant. Probably not HIGH, as there are other distribution channels for this data.	There are multiple channels for the delivery of this information, so if this one is not available, others will work. Could consider raising this to MODERATE if it is the sole mechanism able to reach certain areas.
