What is ISO/TS 21192—Support for traffic management about?
ISO/TS 21192 identifies the architecture of a toll system environment in which a toll charger (TC) can act to support traffic management with the use of a tariff scheme.
ISO/TS 21192 is a toolbox standard of application protocol data units (APDUs), which can be used for the assigned purpose. The detailed definitions of mandatory and optional elements in real implementation are outside the scope of ISO/TS 21192.
ISO/TS 21192 allows the implementer to define suitable protocol procedures such as basic interaction, protocol mechanism, and choice of the transfer protocol.
Who is ISO/TS 21192—Support for traffic management for?
ISO/TS 21192 on support for traffic management is useful for:
- Electronic Road Pricing
- Lanes and high occupancy tolls
- Traffic management department
Why should you use ISO/TS 21192—Support for traffic management?
Traffic management is becoming more important in urban areas for the reduction of congestion and for emissions control, and EFC schemes such as the smart route selection and managed lanes are some of the key EFC applications used to support traffic management.
ISO/TS 21192 guidelines help the users to know a standard framework and data flow model of traffic management in electronic fee collection.
ISO/TS 21192 provides the guidance to define an exchange of information between a TC and a road and traffic manager (RTM).
ISO/TS 21192 defines responsibilities of the role allocated to the traffic management domain which includes:
- Definition of the LOS, including required transport performance which is appropriate for a regional transportation network
- Provision of road usage data, including transit data to find the individual vehicle trace of the routes and to calculate the tolls
- Operation of a travel demand model, including requesting a new tariff scheme to improve traffic management
ISO/TS 21192 helps to provide roles and tasks of TC and RTM to support traffic management.
