Definitions

work zone warning notification (Information Flow): Notification of a work zone emergency or safety issue. This flow identifies that a work zone emergency or safety issue has occurred so that warnings may be generated by more than one system in the work zone.

ITS Roadway Equipment (Source Physical Object): 'ITS Roadway Equipment' represents the ITS equipment that is distributed on and along the roadway that monitors and controls traffic and monitors and manages the roadway. This physical object includes traffic detectors, environmental sensors, traffic signals, highway advisory radios, dynamic message signs, CCTV cameras and video image processing systems, grade crossing warning systems, and ramp metering systems. Lane management systems and barrier systems that control access to transportation infrastructure such as roadways, bridges and tunnels are also included. This object also provides environmental monitoring including sensors that measure road conditions, surface weather, and vehicle emissions. Work zone systems including work zone surveillance, traffic control, driver warning, and work crew safety systems are also included.

Multi-Access Edge Computing (Destination Physical Object): 'Multi-Access Edge Computing' ((MEC) previously known as mobile edge computing) represents computing devices that operate and are managed like a cloud server, but are deployed at the edge of a network (typically a cellular network, but it could be any network). While not in strict proximity to the transportation network, these systems do benefit from vastly decreased distances to the roadway compared to central systems, and so can provide lower latency than strictly backoffice systems

Communication Solutions

Solutions are sorted in ascending Gap Severity order. The Gap Severity is the parenthetical number at the end of the solution.

Selected Solution

(None-Data) - OMG DDS over Wireless

Solution Description

This solution is used within Canada and the U.S.. It combines standards associated with (None-Data) with those for OMG DDS over Wireless. The (None-Data) standards include an unspecified set of standards at the upper layers. The OMG DDS over Wireless standards include lower-layer standards that support secure data sharing and command operations between remote devices over wireless links.

Note that some layers might have alternatives, in which case all of the gap icons associated with every alternative may be shown on the diagram, but the solution severity calculations (and resulting ordering of solutions) includes only the issues associated with the default (i.e., best, least severe) alternative.

Interoperability	Description
Local	In cases where an interface is normally encapsulated by a single stakeholder, interoperability is still desirable, but the motive is vendor independence and the efficiencies and choices that an open standards-based interface provides.

Rating	Moderate	Moderate	Moderate
Basis	This data is intentionally transmitted to everyone via a broadcast. It can also be determined via other visual indicators; however, all communications between field infrastructure should be protected from viewing to prevent attackers from analyzing traffic and developing attack methods.	This information should be accurate, but an incorrect information should not have a direct impact causing the loss of life or limb.	The system should be able to operate properly if it misses a few messages. If a message is not received, the RSE should know.
