Background

    Section 1201 of SAFETEA-LU established the Real-Time System 
Management Information Program to provide, in all States, the 
capability to monitor, in real-time, the traffic and travel conditions 
of the major highways of the United States and to share that data with 
State and local governments and with the traveling public. On May 4, 
2006, the FHWA published a notice in the Federal Register at 71 FR 
26399 outlining some proposed preliminary program parameters and seeing 
public comments on the proposed description of the Real-Time System 
Management Information Program, including its outcome goals definitions 
for various program parameters, and the current status of related 
activities in the States. We are using the comments we received in 
response to that notice to develop regulations on the Real-Time System 
Management Information Program. We expect to publish our notice of 
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for this program shortly.
    Our forthcoming NPRM does not pertain to subsections 1201(b) and 
1201(c)(2). Subsection 1201(b) of SAFETEA-LU requires the FHWA to 
``establish'' data exchange formats within 2 years of the enactment of 
SAFETEA-LU, or August 10, 2007. Subsection 1201(c)(2) requires that 
``States shall incorporate data exchange formats established by the 
Secretary under subsection (b) to ensure that the data provided by 
highway and transit monitoring systems may be readily exchanged with 
State and local governments and may be made available to the traveling 
public.''
    Further analysis by the FHWA leads to the conclusion that 
subsections 1201(a)(1) and 1201(a)(2) do not specifically state that 
the use of FHWA-identified data exchange formats is a requirement for 
the 1201 programs, but only that the purpose of the section is to meet 
the larger goals including sharing data among the State and local 
governments and the traveling public. Furthermore, subsection 1201(d) 
makes funds eligible to meet the larger goals in 1201(a), but does not 
specifically mention that 1201(b) data exchange formats must be used 
for an entity to be eligible to apply Federal funds towards 
establishing Real-Time System Management Information Programs.
    The comments and input received on these questions will not affect 
future rulemaking regarding the Real-Time System Management Information 
Program as described above. Rather, the comments and input received on 
these questions may be used by the FHWA for future guidance development 
and/or regulatory changes. We invite the public to submit comments on 
this interim guidance. We plan to issue final guidance after we have 
evaluated all the comments received on this interim guidance. Comments, 
including those from the State DOTs, regarding specific burdens, 
impacts, and costs would be most welcome and would aid us in more fully 
appreciating the impacts of Data Exchange Formats.

--What guidance would facilitate the application of data exchange 
formats in your organization?
--Does the reference document provide adequate detail on the nature of 
interoperability to be attained through application of the data 
exchange formats?

[[Page 58348]]

--Does your organization make use of the ATIS-01 Broadcast Traveler 
Information Market Package defined in the National ITS Architecture?
--What is a reasonable interval between publications of new versions of 
the data exchange formats?
--Is there sufficient detail in the ``Functional Area/Requirement 
Description?'' If not, how much further requirement description would 
be required?
--Many of the requirements map to messages that have optional elements. 
Should there be changes to the identification of the optional elements, 
which would change the nature of the message as defined by the Standard 
Development Organization?
--Does your organization make use of the ITS Standards that are 
referenced in the data exchange formats?
--Would independent certification or self-certification be more 
effective for validating the application of the data exchange formats?
--Do the data exchange formats relate to the operational practices of 
your organization?

    The FHWA also welcomes comments and input on the published data 
exchange formats that address areas of interest that are not 
necessarily addressed in the questions posed above.

Real-Time Information Program: Information Sharing Specifications and 
Data Exchange Format Reference Document

    Prepared for U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway 
Administration (FHWA) & Research and Innovative Technology 
Administration (RITA) By National ITS Architecture Team
    Version 1.0 Release August, 2007

Background

    Section 1201 of SAFTEA-LU establishes the Real-Time System 
Management Information Program. The goals of this program are to 
improve security of the surface transportation system, address 
congestion problems, support improved response to weather events and 
surface transportation incidents, and facilitate national and regional 
highway traveler information. The desired outcomes are to make Traffic 
and Travel Conditions Information available to the traveling public and 
to ease the sharing of Traffic and Travel Conditions Information among 
public agencies and private enterprise.
    The types of information considered for the Real-time Information 
Program (RTIP) include but are not limited to
     Congestion information,
     Traffic incidents that block the roadway,
     Roadway weather conditions,
     Public transportation service disruptions,
     Construction activities affecting travel conditions, and
     Travel times on roadway links.
    The information needed for RTIP is not necessarily available 
everywhere, but the interface will be established with the data that is 
available. The RTIP is not concerned with developing the sources of 
information but with providing a standard interface to obtain the 
information when it does exist. Therefore, the RTIP specifications will 
not address data collection. They will focus on center-to-center 
exchanges and information that should be made available to travelers. 
In addition, these specifications will address information exchanges 
only and will not include device control.
    There are two efforts described in Section 1201. One is the 
establishment of the RTIP in each State per the requirements of Section 
1201. This information system is to be created in concert with the 
updates of regional ITS architectures as they are maintained. Two is 
the establishment of data exchange formats to facilitate the exchange 
of information.
    These data exchange formats will leverage existing ITS standards to 
the greatest extent possible.
    This document establishes three components to ease the exchange of 
Traffic and Travel Conditions Information:
     A Concept of Operations to define the entire RTIP scope,
     A set of functional specifications to describe a full 
RTIP, based upon the functional specifications set forth in the 
National ITS Architecture,
     An ITS Standards reference that draws the association 
between the RTIP functional specifications and particular ITS 
standards.

Concept of Operations

Scope

    The RTIP is intended to establish a standard data format to 
exchange traffic and travel conditions on major highways among State 
and local government systems and the traveling public. The real-time 
traffic and travel information to be exchanged with this format 
includes
     Basic information for managing and operating the surface 
transportation system, excluding control
     Statewide incident reporting system information
     Surface transportation system security information
     Congestion information
     Weather conditions
     Surface transportation incidents
     Traveler information
    A RTIP may be established in each State to leverage the current and 
future capabilities of monitoring the traffic and travel conditions of 
the major highways. The data exchange formats will be used for 
standardized, interoperable communication among transportation 
management systems and the information service providers that collect 
that information to disseminate to the traveling public. The 
transportation management systems could encompass traffic management, 
transit management, maintenance and construction management, and 
emergency management organizations.
    ITS America's Interoperability Subcommittee adopted the following, 
in accord with ISO TC 204, as the definition of interoperability: 
``Interoperability is the ability of systems to provide services and to 
accept services from other systems and to use the services so exchanged 
to enable them to operate effectively together.'' In examining systems 
for interoperability, it is useful to distinguish two degrees of 
interoperability, ``pair-wise'' and ``end-to-end'' interoperability. 
Pair-wise interoperability involves verifying that two systems are able 
to exchange data and that the data has the same meaning to each system 
and leads to the expected functionality. ``End-to-end'' 
interoperability involves verifying that the flow and use of data are 
consistent from initial input to final outcome. The RTIP is primarily 
focused on the ``pair-wise'' interoperability with the specification of 
common data formats.
    The scope of this program will reach all States. While not all 
State or local organizations collect and disseminate the same types of 
information, standardized formats will be mapped to the types of 
information in use. Standard data exchange formats will aid in the 
deployment of standard interfaces among surface transportation systems 
and information services. The RTIP is focused on center-to-center 
interfaces and the current conditions of the surface transportation 
system.
    The RTIP is really about implementing interface standards 
consistently across the country and facilitating the implementation of 
data

[[Page 58349]]

collection and dissemination systems to provide more of the information 
needed by the transportation management community and the traveling 
public. The standardized common data exchange formats reside above the 
traditional 7-Layer ISO OSI communications stack. The OSI layers below 
the Application Layer can vary depending on the ITS deployment and will 
most likely be Internet (TCP/IP) based.

Current System or Situation

    Over the past decade, ITS standards have been developed or are in 
the latter stages of development. Traffic management, transit 
management, and emergency management systems have been deployed or are 
being developed that use different standardized interfaces, different 
versions of the standards, or custom (i.e., non-standardized) 
interfaces. This leads to potential difficulties in data exchange from 
one system to another. Transportation management systems are 
increasingly producing congestion-related information but the impact of 
that information to address congestion is diminished because of 
inefficient data sharing practices.
    Transportation system operators need information about incidents, 
the current state of the roadway conditions, and events that are 
planned in the area of operation. Current conditions or issues in a 
neighboring geographic area may affect the local transportation system 
in ways both subtle and pronounced. The transit operator needs many of 
the same pieces of information to provide the best service to their 
riders. Information service providers collect the same kind of 
information, integrate, and provide it to the public to aid better 
travel decision making.
    Information is available everywhere in the surface transportation 
system, however, it is not always accessible to transportation system 
operators or the traveling public due to the lack of standard 
interfaces. The key to unlocking this information is to establish 
standard data exchange formats that are implemented consistently in 
every State. This would allow a transportation system utilizing the 
standard data exchange formats to develop an interface to the outside 
world to gather external information and make their own information 
available to others who need it without building multiple interfaces 
for each external system.

Justification

    The RTIP is established in SAFETEA-LU in Section 1201. However, the 
justification for this program goes beyond the legislation. The premise 
of Intelligent Transportation Systems is to connect the islands of 
information in the surface transportation system. Data collected by one 
agency's system is often beneficial to a neighboring system or to a 
traveler information system. This does not mean that every system has 
to be physically connected to all others. Establishing data exchange 
formats make data collected by a system available to any organization 
that wishes to retrieve it in that same data exchange format.
    Establishment of real-time information will not happen all at once. 
It needs to be planned by each State and each transportation system in 
each State that operates the major highways. Information service 
providers may choose to apply these same data exchange formats to 
retrieve the information available from the surface transportation 
systems, process the information, and send it along to the traveling 
public.

Proposed Concept

    On May 4, 2006, the FHWA published a notice in the Federal Register 
(71 FR 26399) outlining some proposed preliminary program parameters 
and seeking public comments on the proposed description of the Real-
time System Management Information Program, including its outcome 
goals, definitions for various program parameters, and the current 
status of related activities in the States. The proposed concept 
described here is based upon the proposed preliminary program 
parameters.
    The RTIP is built around standard data exchange formats based on 
existing ITS standards. The RTIP will establish a reference of data 
exchange formats that can be used by State and local agencies as well 
as information service providers to build interfaces in their systems 
to exchange the real-time traffic and traveler information. An 
organization would examine the referenced data exchange formats and 
implement an interface to their system that supports the formats.
    The system would provide the information it has to this interface, 
not a specific system, in the standard data exchange format. No 
processing of the information is required, although some manipulation 
may occur to make the information item compatible with the data 
exchange format. Figure 1 illustrates the concept of the RTIP. The 
primary focus of the RTIP is the establishment of data exchange formats 
to facilitate the exchange of traffic and travel conditions.

[[Page 58350]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TN15OC07.017

    Not all systems will have all the data identified by the data 
exchange formats. That is understood and accepted. The important point 
of the RTIP is that the data be made available in a manner that 
minimizes misinterpretation. This will enable another system to 
retrieve the available information without customizing a format for the 
data. The RTIP is not requiring the implementation of new data 
collection systems to meet all of the data exchange formats identified, 
but it is assumed that over time, more data will become available and 
it should be provided in the formats established.
    Further, the RTIP is concerned with real-time information. It is 
essentially a stream of data made available to other systems over a 
center-to-center interface. Even though there are no proposed storage 
requirements within the scope of the RTIP, it is good practice. 
Transportation Management Systems, ISPs and the Planning Community will 
likely gain from applications that make use of the archives of the 
real-time information.
    The information will address real-time traffic and travel 
conditions that facilitate management, operations, and decision making 
on the part of transportation system operators and the traveling 
public. This information should improve the security of the surface 
transportation system, address congestion problems, support improved 
response to weather events and surface transportation incidents, and 
facilitate national and regional highway traveler information.

Operational Scenarios

    From a Traffic Management Center Operator's perspective, the RTIP 
will provide more comprehensive information on the operator's console. 
Information collected from neighboring systems, in other jurisdictions, 
such as a freeway management system, may inform the operator that there 
is an incident in the outbound lanes from the neighboring system. The 
operator can use this incident information from the neighboring agency 
to inform freeway service patrols of the issue and to take appropriate 
response, to place information on Dynamic Message Signs (DMS) to inform 
travelers on the outbound facilities of the incident, or to implement 
diversion plans to diffuse the impact.
    The Traffic Management Center software interface may be configured 
to accept and process this external information but the information 
would be received in a standard data exchange format making it possible 
to design the interface once for that information no matter where it 
originated.
    From the traveler's perspective, they receive their transportation 
information from an Information Service Provider (ISP) who collects 
traffic and travel conditions information from their own as well as 
external sources such as traffic management centers and transit 
management centers. The ISP processes the information and makes it 
available as a service or product to the traveler. The ISP would 
collect the information from the various sources over an interface 
using the standard data exchange formats established under the RTIP.
    In these instances, the data exchange formats are the constant. 
This enables agencies to collect from other systems and provide 
information externally without establishing a different data exchange 
format with each system interface. This reduces the complexity of each 
system involved regarding interface definition, implementation, and 
maintenance. Each organization involved in this scenario can anticipate 
the types of information that will be received.
    The data is real-time and not stored by the source system. It is 
essentially a data feed. It is likely the subscribing organization 
would establish the connection to the source, retrieve the information 
needed, and store any information required for other purposes such as 
transportation planning or research. In addition, these are information 
exchanges only. No device control is facilitated or addressed by the 
RTIP.

Summary of Impacts

    The impacts of the RTIP will be the planning for existing system 
upgrades

[[Page 58351]]

for the standard data exchange formats, the update of regional 
architectures to reflect the data exchange formats and interfaces, and 
the deployment of those formats for data exchange and the interface 
they are made available on.
    This document contains the high-level specifications for the data 
exchange formats to support the RTIP. These high-level specifications 
have been used to identify standards elements that satisfy the needs of 
the RTIP based on these specifications. The high-level specifications 
defined in this document bound the scope of the RTIP.

Specifications

    The National ITS Architecture was used as a source of information 
for the Concept of Operations and the functional specifications. The 
RTIP concept was mapped to the National ITS Architecture definition. 
The ATIS01-Broadcast Traveler Information Market Package was used to 
start the mapping process. The interfaces identified were tailored 
based on the following interface criteria:
     Focus on center-to-center interfaces
     Remove request flows
     Remove control flows
     Include system operation and conditions information
     Include information of operational use to other systems
     Include information of use to travelers
     Remove duplicate flows
    The interfaces presented by the National ITS Architecture mapping 
include:
Traffic Management Information
     Road network conditions
     Road weather information
     Traffic information coordination
     Road network probe information
     Traffic incidents
     Air quality data
Maintenance and Construction Management
     Maintenance and construction work plans
     Roadway maintenance status
     Work zone information
Transit Management Information
     Emergency transit schedule information
     Road network probe information
     Transit and fare schedules
     Transit incident information
     Transit system data
Information Service Provider Information
     Broadcast information
     Road network probe information
     Traveler information
     Emergency traveler information
Parking Information
     Parking locations
     Parking availability
Emergency Management Information
     Evacuation information
     Disaster information
    Given the Concept of Operations and the interfaces from the 
National ITS Architecture as a starting point, the functional 
specifications associated with each information flow in the National 
ITS Architecture were examined along with the related process 
specifications and data flows to generate a tailored set of high-level 
specifications. These high-level specifications were refined and those 
refined specifications were used to identify the data exchange formats 
within the existing ITS Standards that apply to the RTIP. The resulting 
specifications are provided in the first 3 columns of the Table in 
Appendix A. In the specifications, the subject system is referred to as 
the Real-Time Information Program (RTIP). The RTIP can be any system 
that would be satisfying Section 1201.

Standards Reference

    The ultimate goal of this document is to provide a reference 
between the specifications of the RTIP defined in Section 1201 and the 
data exchange formats established in the ITS Standards. The table in 
Appendix A maps the specifications to the messages required to provide 
the functions in the Real Time Information Program (RTIP). The 
functional specifications are grouped under broad functionalities of 
RTIP. The specifications described under the ``General Specifications'' 
category articulates the methods by which the logical traffic network 
information in a center-to-center (C2C) communications environment 
would convey traffic, incident and other information based on the node 
(a geographic point) and links (road segment between two nodes) in the 
area.
    The messages in the referenced standards (SAE J2354, TMDD, IEEE 
1512) are defined in such a way that several different submessages are 
packaged in a wrapper message. All of the submessages in the wrapper 
message are defined as an optional element so that a local implementer 
can use only the submessage(s) which are necessary to support its 
system's specification. The mapped messages for the specification(s) 
also indicate which submessage(s) needs to be used.
    As an example for implementation, consider the specification and 
subspecifications of 1.4. A RTIP implementer will need to use the MSG--
Public incident description (PID) message from IEEE 1512 Base Standards 
populated with detour and closures information for sending it to the 
intended target center. This PID message has the wrapper message named 
DF--IDX--Wrapper which wraps detour and closure submessage 
(impactReports) as well as most of the other submessages from IEEE 1512 
Base, IEEE 1512.1, IEEE 1512.2 and IEEE 1512.3 standards. But for 
sending detour and closures information the DF--IDX--Wrapper needs to 
have only the value of impactReports entry which has detour and 
closures information while all other submessages can be omitted as they 
are defined as optional and do not need to be included.
    Most of the specifications have messages mapped to them taken from 
existing standards. A list of specifications for which there is no 
related message in the existing standards is provided below.
    3.4 The RTIP shall provide information about the changes to transit 
services during an evacuation.
    3.6 The RTIP shall provide transit alerts and advisories pertaining 
to major emergencies or disasters.
    The ITS standards referenced in Appendix A feature the following 
versions. Please note that ITS standards evolve over time, and that 
there may be a revision to this table in the future:
    TMDD--Standards for Traffic Management Center to Center 
Communications, ITE/AASHTO, Version 2.1, June 1, 2005.
    IEEE 1512 Base Standards--IEEE Standard for Common Incident 
Management Message Sets for Use by Emergency Management Centers, IEEE, 
Version IEEE Std 1512-2006, June 8, 2006.
    IEEE 1512.1--2006--IEEE Standard for Common Incident Management 
Message Sets for Use by Emergency Management Centers, IEEE, Version 
IEEE Std 1512.1-2006, November 2, 2006.

(ATIS), SAE, Version SAE J2354, February 2004.
