Light Vehicle OBE --> Transportation Information Center:
traveler sourced updates

Definitions

traveler sourced updates (Information Flow): Traveler posts on traffic and road conditions, parking availability, transit services, traveler services, shelter information, hazards, debris, obstacles, and other real-time crowd-sourced data that may be shared with other travelers.

Light Vehicle OBE (Source Physical Object): The 'Light Vehicle OBE' includes traveler-oriented capabilities that apply to passenger cars, trucks, and motorcycles that are used for personal travel. The rules vary by jurisdiction, but generally light vehicles are restricted in their weight and the maximum number of passengers they can carry. In ARC-IT, the Light Vehicle OBE represents vehicles that are operated as personal vehicles that are not part of a vehicle fleet and are not used commercially; thus, the choice between the various vehicle subsystems should be based more on how the vehicle is used than how much the vehicle weighs. See also the 'Vehicle' subsystem that includes the general safety and information services that apply to all types of vehicles, including light vehicles.

Transportation Information Center (Destination Physical Object): The 'Transportation Information Center' collects, processes, stores, and disseminates transportation information to system operators and the traveling public. The physical object can play several different roles in an integrated ITS. In one role, the TIC provides a data collection, fusing, and repackaging function, collecting information from transportation system operators and redistributing this information to other system operators in the region and other TICs. In this information redistribution role, the TIC provides a bridge between the various transportation systems that produce the information and the other TICs and their subscribers that use the information. The second role of a TIC is focused on delivery of traveler information to subscribers and the public at large. Information provided includes basic advisories, traffic and road conditions, transit schedule information, yellow pages information, ride matching information, and parking information. The TIC is commonly implemented as a website or a web-based application service, but it represents any traveler information distribution service.

Communication Solutions

Solutions are sorted in ascending Gap Severity order. The Gap Severity is the parenthetical number at the end of the solution.

Selected Solution

(None-Data) - OMG DDS over Wireless

Solution Description

This solution is used within the U.S.. It combines standards associated with (None-Data) with those for OMG DDS over Wireless. The (None-Data) standards include an unspecified set of standards at the upper layers. The OMG DDS over Wireless standards include lower-layer standards that support secure data sharing and command operations between remote devices over wireless links.

Basis This is likely to include the traveler location and may include traveler identity as well. This PII could be used by an attacker to the detriment of the traveler. Quality of social media inputs may be highly variable, but no publicly distributable data should be exchanged without some protection over its transmission. While a widespread and widely used dissemination channel, social media tends to be cluttered with lots of other information, so it is not a primary dissemination channel for this information.
