Maui Regional ITS Architecture

Element Expanded Functional Requirements: HDOT-HAR-M Security Center


Functional Area: Center Secure Area Surveillance
  1. The center shall remotely monitor video images and audio surveillance data collected in secure areas including facilities (e.g. transit yards) and transportation infrastructure (e.g. bridges, tunnels, interchanges, roadway infrastructure, and transit railways or guideways). The data may be raw or pre-processed in the field.
  2. The center shall remotely monitor video images and audio surveillance data collected in traveler secure areas, which include transit stations, transit stops, rest areas, park and ride lots, and other fixed sites along travel routes (e.g., emergency pull-off areas and travel information centers). The data may be raw or pre-processed in the field.
  3. The center shall remotely monitor video images and audio surveillance data collected on-board transit vehicles. The data may be raw or pre-processed in the field.
  4. The center shall exchange surveillance data with other emergency centers.
  5. The center shall identify potential security threats based on collected security surveillance data.
  6. The center shall verify potential security threats by correlating security surveillance data from multiple sources.
  7. The center shall remotely control security surveillance devices in secure areas including facilities (e.g. transit yards) and transportation infrastructure (e.g. bridges, tunnels, interchanges, roadway infrastructure, and transit railways or guideways).
  8. The center shall remotely control security surveillance devices in traveler secure areas, which include transit stations, transit stops, rest areas, park and ride lots, and other fixed sites along travel routes (e.g., emergency pull-off areas and travel information centers).
  9. The center shall remotely control security surveillance devices on-board transit vehicles.
  10. The center shall match traveler video images against a database from the Alerting and Advisory Systems of known images that may represent criminals and terrorists.
  11. The center shall exchange traveler images with other emergency management centers to support traveler image matching.
  12. The center shall respond to control data from center personnel regarding security surveillance data collection, processing, threat detection, and image matching.
  13. The center shall monitor maintenance status of the security sensor field equipment.
  14. The center shall remotely monitor video images and audio surveillance data collected in secure areas including facilities and transportation infrastructure. The data may be raw or pre-processed in the field.
Functional Area: Emergency Evacuation Support
  1. The center shall manage inter-agency coordination of evacuation operations, from initial planning through the evacuation process and reentry.
  2. The center shall develop and exchange evacuation plans with allied agencies prior to the occurrence of a disaster.
  3. The center shall provide an interface to the emergency system operator to enter evacuation plans and procedures and present the operator with other agencies' plans.
  4. The center shall coordinate evacuation destinations and shelter needs with shelter providers (e.g., the American Red Cross) in the region.
  5. The center shall provide evacuation information to traffic, transit, maintenance and construction, rail operations, and other emergency management centers as needed.
  6. The center shall request resources from transit agencies as needed to support the evacuation.
  7. The center shall request traffic management agencies to implement special traffic control strategies and to control evacuation traffic, including traffic on local streets and arterials as well as the major evacuation routes.
  8. The center shall provide traveler information systems with evacuation guidance including basic information to assist potential evacuees in determining whether evacuation is necessary and when it is safe to return.
  9. The center shall monitor the progress or status of the evacuation once it begins and exchange tactical plans, prepared during the incident, with allied agencies.
  10. The center shall monitor the progress of the reentry process.
  11. The center shall submit evacuation information to toll administration centers along with requests for changes in the toll services or fee collection during an evacuation.
  12. The center shall retrieve information from public health systems to plan for and implement evacuations or in-place sheltering for biological, chemical, radiation, and other public health emergencies.
Functional Area: TMC Evacuation Support
  1. The center shall coordinate planning for evacuation with emergency management centers - including pre-planning activities such as establishing routes, areas to be evacuated, timing, etc.
  2. The center shall support requests from emergency management centers to preempt the current traffic control strategy, activate traffic control and closure systems such as gates and barriers, activate safeguard systems, or use driver information systems to support evacuation traffic control plans.
  3. The center shall coordinate information and controls with other traffic management centers.
  4. The center shall coordinate execution of evacuation strategies with emergency management centers - including activities such as setting closures and detours, establishing routes, updating areas to be evacuated, timing the process, etc.
 

The Hawaiian language uses two diacritical markings. The 'okina is a glottal stop; and the kahako is a macron. The State of Hawaii strongly encourages the use of Hawaiian diacritical markings. The National ITS Architecture tool, Turbo Architecture, does not allow for the Hawaiian diacritical markings to be input and as such, customized service package diagrams, operational concepts and other outputs from Turbo are unable to reflect the diacritical markings. To ensure consistency in this ITS Architecture website, no Hawaiian diacritical markings will be used.
