What is ISO 17573‑1- vehicle-related tolling about?
Electronic fee collection systems conforming to ISO 17573‑1 can be used for various purposes including road tolling, area tolling, collecting fees for the usage of bridges, tunnels, ferries, for access or for parking.
ISO 17573‑1 provides you with electronic fee collection system architecture that provides an architectural “umbrella” for other electronic fee collection standards in terms of a definition of terms and concepts, basic system functionalities, and structure.
ISO 17573‑1 specifies the architecture of electronic fee collection (EFC) system environments, in which a customer with one contract may use a vehicle in a variety of toll domains with a different toll charger for each domain. Architectural description focuses on toll determination, toll charging, and the associated enforcement measures.
Who is ISO 17573‑1 - vehicle-related tolling for?
ISO 17573‑1 on vehicle related tolling is useful for:
- Toll chargers and toll service providers
- Transport authorities
- Traffic and safety management systems
- Organization involved with transport operations
Why should you use ISO 17573‑1 - vehicle-related tolling?
The widespread use of vehicle-related tolling requires provisions for users of vehicles that are roaming through many different toll domains. Users should be offered a single contract for driving a vehicle through various toll domains and those vehicles require on-board equipment (OBE) that is interoperable with the toll systems in the various toll domains.
ISO 17573‑1 provides you with electronic fee collection system architecture that provides a common terminology which supports its users to improve the quality of specifications to be used in an international market to reduce the risk for conflicting interpretations of specifications and descriptions and helps to enhance the potential use of other electronic fee collection standards.
ISO 17573‑1 defines a framework, which enables both identifications of potential activities subject to standardization and maintaining a common and consistent view of the whole area. This document also provides you with understanding of electronic fee collection, electronic fee collection interoperability, and the electronic fee collection services being offered.
