Information Flow Definitions

automated vehicle control parameters  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Information, instructions, and control parameters for automated vehicle operations including current system conditions and advisories, control parameters (e.g., speed, required vehicle performance profiles, gaps or headways) and check in/checkout instructions.

automated vehicle control status  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Data provided by a connected vehicle identifying it's current mode and operational status and information provided to support check–in/checkout of the lane and coordinated maneuvers while on the automated facility.

intersection geometry  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

The physical geometry of an intersection covering the location and width of each approaching lane, egress lane, and valid paths between approaches and egresses. This flow also defines the location of stop lines, cross walks, specific traffic law restrictions for the intersection (e.g., turning movement restrictions), and other elements that support calculation of a safe and legal vehicle path through the intersection.

intersection status  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Current signal phase and timing information for all lanes at a signalized intersection. This flow identifies active lanes and lanes that are being stopped and specifies the length of time that the current state will persist for each lane. It also identifies signal priority and preemption status and pedestrian crossing status information where applicable.

local signal priority request  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Request from a vehicle to a signalized intersection for priority at that intersection. This flow also allows the vehicle to cancel a priority request (for example, when the vehicle clears the intersection).

local traveler information  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Traveler information including traffic, road, and weather conditions for a particular locality. This flow includes the location–specific traveler information and time effectivity of the information.

location correction  (Future)  

Information provided to improve positional accuracy. These corrections allow a mobile GPS receiver, such as a GPS system in a connected vehicle, to achieve a
greater absolute positional accuracy, compensating for errors that exist in satellite positioning.

map updates  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Map update that could include a new underlying static or real–time map or map layer(s) update. Map layers can include highways, major roads, streets, public transport routes, pedestrian routes, topography, points of interest, and regulatory information including turn restrictions and speed limits.

parking availability  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Information on available parking. This flow identifies available spaces with associated information about parking restrictions and location for each available space. Specifically includes information on parking for commercial vehicles, coaches/buses, and cars – and likely also motorcycles, electric vehicle plugins, etc.

parking facility geometry  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Precise spatial description of a parking facility that locates each parking space and the ingress and egress routes that are used to travel to and from the spaces.

roadway geometry  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

The physical geometry of a road segment that specifies the location and width of each lane, including normal lanes as well as special lanes for pedestrians and bicycles, transit vehicles, and trains. This flow also may include the curvature, grade, and superelevation or banking of the road segment.

service advertisement  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

An advertisement of available services and identification of how those services may be accessed (e.g., RF parameters, identifiers, etc.). Services include network services such as IPv6 routing, public roadside services such as intersection safety, back office services including situation data services and security credentials, or private services.

signal priority status  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

In response to a request for signal priority, this flow indicates the status of the priority or preemption request.

vehicle environmental data  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Data from vehicle safety and convenience systems that can be used to estimate environmental and infrastructure conditions, including measured air temperature, exterior light status, wiper status, sun sensor status, rain sensor status, traction control status, anti–lock brake status, vertical acceleration and other collected vehicle system status and sensor information. The collected data is reported along with the location, heading, and time that the data was collected. Both current data and snapshots of recent events (e.g., traction control or anti–lock brake system activations) may be reported.

vehicle location and motion  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Data describing the vehicle's location in three dimensions, heading, speed, acceleration, braking status, and size.

vehicle location and motion for surveillance  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Data describing the vehicle's location in three dimensions, heading, speed, acceleration, braking status, and size. This flow represents monitoring of basic safety data ('vehicle location and motion') broadcast by passing connected vehicles for use in vehicle detection and traffic monitoring applications.

vehicle platoon coordination  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

Coordination of control commands between leader and follower vehicles allowing vehicles to join, coordinate with, and separate from platoons of cooperative vehicles. This flow shares platoon size, location, and performance parameters (e.g., platoon speed and spacing) between platooned vehicles. It also coordinates maneuvers between platooned vehicles, including maneuvers as vehicles join and leave the platoon.

vehicle signage data  (Future)  Selected Comm Solution

In–vehicle signing data that augments regulatory, warning, and informational road signs and signals. The information provided would include static sign information (e.g., stop, curve warning, guide signs, service signs, and directional signs) and dynamic information (e.g., local traffic and road conditions, lane restrictions, work zones, detours, closures, advisories, and warnings).
