Architecture Flow Definitions

environmental conditions data  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current road conditions (e.g., surface temperature, subsurface temperature, moisture, icing, treatment status) and surface weather conditions (e.g., air temperature, wind speed, precipitation, visibility) as measured and reported by fixed and/or mobile environmental sensors and aggregated by the data collector. Attributes relating to the data collection (and aggregation) are also included.

transportation weather information  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

Current and forecast road conditions and weather information (e.g., surface condition, flooding, wind advisories, visibility, etc.) associated with the transportation network. This information is of a resolution, timeliness, and accuracy to be useful in transportation decision making.

transportation weather information request  (Planned)  Applicable ITS Standards

A request for transportation weather information that may specify the area of interest (a geographic region, particular routes within a region, specific road segments), the type of information that is required, the desired spatial resolution of the information, and time horizon.
