Multimodal Crossing Equipment --> ITS Roadway Equipment:
multimodal crossing status
Definitions
multimodal crossing status (Information Flow): Indication of operational status and pending requests for right-of-way from equipment supporting the non-highway mode at multimodal crossings.
Multimodal Crossing Equipment (Source Physical Object): 'Multimodal Crossing Equipment' represents the control equipment that interfaces to a non-road based transportation system at an interference crossing with the roadway. The majority of these crossings are railroad grade crossings that are more specifically addressed by the "Wayside Equipment" terminator. This multimodal crossing terminator addresses similar interface requirements, but for other specialized intersections like draw bridges at rivers and canals. These crossings carry traffic that may take priority over the road traffic at the intersection. The data provided will in its basic form be a simple "stop road traffic" indication. However more complex data flows may be provided that give the time at which right-of-way will be required and the duration of that right-of-way requirement.
ITS Roadway Equipment (Destination Physical Object): 'ITS Roadway Equipment' represents the ITS equipment that is distributed on and along the roadway that monitors and controls traffic and monitors and manages the roadway. This physical object includes traffic detectors, environmental sensors, traffic signals, highway advisory radios, dynamic message signs, CCTV cameras and video image processing systems, grade crossing warning systems, and ramp metering systems. Lane management systems and barrier systems that control access to transportation infrastructure such as roadways, bridges and tunnels are also included. This object also provides environmental monitoring including sensors that measure road conditions, surface weather, and vehicle emissions. Work zone systems including work zone surveillance, traffic control, driver warning, and work crew safety systems are also included.

Interoperability | Description |
---|---|
Local | In cases where an interface is normally encapsulated by a single stakeholder, interoperability is still desirable, but the motive is vendor independence and the efficiencies and choices that an open standards-based interface provides. |

Basis | There should be no sensitive information in this flow. Raise to MODERATE if reverse engineering of a proprietary interface is a concern. | This information can indicate when a road is closed to due a drawbridge being raised, which has a significant effect on traffic. If this information were falsified, it could have a significant negative effect on mobility over a large area. | Should not require rapid response or frequent update. Raise to MODERATE if frequent real-time updates are part of the system scope. |
