  1. National ITS Architecture Update Cliff Heise, Vice President, Federal and Research Programs Iteris, Inc. EmilianoLopez,ITS Deployment Program Manager FHWA Headquarters ITS Joint Program Office Professional Capacity Building Program Talking Technology and Transportation (T3) Presentation October 27, 2009 David Binkley, Senior Systems Engineer Lockheed Martin T3 Webinars are brought to you by the ITS Professional Capacity Building Program (ITS PCB) at the U.S. Department of Transportation’s (USDOT) ITS Joint Program Office, Research and Innovative Technology Administration (RITA)

  2. Agenda • National ITS Architecture • Overview • Version 6.1 update • Turbo Architecture version 4.1 • Discussion of deployment support and resources available • Presenters • Cliff Heise, Iteris • Emiliano Lopez, FHWA

  3. National ITS Architecture Overview

  4. What is ITS? • Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) include the electronics, communications or information processing used singly or integrated to improve the efficiency or safety of surface transportation • Examples: • Traffic signal controllers • Traffic Management Centers • “511” (traveler information) • Electronic toll-tagging

  5. What is an ITS Architecture? • Framework for Developing Integrated Transportation Systems • Identifies: • Organizations • Systems operated • Functions performed • Communications • Information exchanged

  6. I-93 Closed at Decatur Blvd. Traffic Information Request for Traffic Information ITS Architectures Provide a Framework for Integration Traffic Travelers Transit Emergency Service Providers

  7. What is the National ITS Architecture? • HIGH-LEVEL national framework, “blueprint”, used to help guide ITS deployment and transportation planning • Based on 33 transportation related ITS User Services: • Physical Entities – Subsystems/Terminators • Logical Architecture – Processes, Data Flow • Interfaces – Information Flows • Deployment oriented Market Packages

  8. Market Packages Theory of Operations Architecture Products National ITS Architecture • Available on • CD-ROM • Website • Contains • Hypertext • PDF docs • Databases Logical Architecture Physical Architecture Standards Support

  9. Subsystems • Part of the overall Intelligent Transportation System • Identify major systems, functionality • Identify major interfaces • Define key standardization points • 4 Categories • Centers • Field • Vehicles • Travelers

  10. Entities outside of ITS Define interfaces but not functionality Four types of Terminators Environment Human System Other System Terminators Terminators Define the ITS Boundary ITS Subsystems

  11. Market Packages Architecture Framework spanning all of ITS Market Packages Transit Vehicle Transit Management Contain pieces of the architecture that provide a particular transportation service

  13. National ITS Architecture Version 6.1 Update e

  14. National ITS Architecture is a “Living Document” • Continuing evolution of the architecture over 13 years • Version 6.1 continues support for ITS technical evolution and deployment User Services Phase I & II Development 1993 1993-6 Architecture Published HRI ADUS Ver 3.0 Transportation Security Ver 5.0 MCO Ver 4.0 1996 Ver 2.0 Version 6.0 1997 1998 Version 6.1 1999 2002 2003 2007 2009

  15. Architecture Evolution in Step with Industry • Research and Federal Programs • DOT Initiatives • Border Information Flow Architecture (BIFA) • Commercial Vehicle Information and System Networks (CVISN) • IntelliDrive • ITS Standards • Deployment Lessons Learned SM

  16. What’s New in V6.1 Refreshing communications paths Representing initiatives Reflecting standards Keeping pace with ITS innovations

  17. V6.1 Subsystems & Communications Travelers Centers Traffic Management Emergency Management Toll Administration Commercial Vehicle Administration Maintenance & Construction Management Remote Traveler Support Information Service Provider Emissions Management Transit Management Fleet and Freight Management Archived Data Management Personal Information Access Wide Area Wireless (Mobile) Communications Fixed Point – Fixed Point Communications Roadway Vehicle Emergency Vehicle SecurityMonitoring Vehicle – Vehicle Communications Field-Vehicle Communications Transit Vehicle Toll Collection Commercial Vehicle Parking Management Maintenance & Construction Vehicle Commercial Vehicle Check Vehicles Field

  18. V6.1 Communications • Renamed Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) to “Field-Vehicle Communication” • Added a new Communications Layer web/hyperlink page

  19. Initiatives in V6.1 • Formerly known as VII, built on core functions / interfaces added in v6.0: • Added support for all appropriate use cases: signing, electronic payment, fleet management, probe data, etc. • ICM: Decision Support Systems for traffic / transportation management • Clarus: New traveler “alert” flows, data quality • Electronic Freight Management: updated intefaces with Intermodal Freight Depot / Shipper

  20. Standards & v6.1 • Updated Mapping between Architecture Flows and Standards activities • Used by regional / project architects • Reflect new messages in SAE 2735: intersection collision avoidance and Signal Phase and Timing (SPAT) • Synchronize terminology with TMDD v3.0

  21. Other ITS Innovations in v6.1 Split transit scheduling flows to show differences between Static & Dynamic information Transportation Information for Operations: added 2-way exchange between information collectors and operations centers
