US: MDS - Secure Internet (ITS)

Description:

This solution is used within Canada and the U.S.. It combines standards associated with US: MDS with those for I-I: Secure Internet (ITS). The US: MDS standards include The Mobility Data Specification is a digital tool that helps cities to better manage transportation in the public right of way. MDS standardizes communication and data-sharing between cities and private mobility providers, such as e-scooter and bike share companies. This allows cities to share and validate policy digitally, enabling vehicle management and better outcomes for residents. Plus, it provides mobility service providers with a framework they can re-use in new markets, allowing for seamless collaboration that saves time and money.. The I-I: Secure Internet (ITS) standards include lower-layer standards that support secure communications between ITS equipment using X.509 or IEEE 1609.2 security certificates.
