What is ISO 17262 - Intelligent transport systems about?
ISO 17262 is an international standard that defines generic numbering and data structures for unambiguous identification of equipment used for Intermodal goods transport. These data are known as “Intermodal Goods Transport Numbering and Data Structures”. ISO 17262 defines data independently of the data carrier. The modelling of data is based on. Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) as defined in ISO/IEC 8824.
Data defined in ISO 17262 require a system for control and distribution of number series independent of the different AVI/AEI systems. This is required in order to avoid ambiguity and to provide the necessary level of security where appropriate.
ISO 17262 enables the use of optimised encoding schemes such as ASN.1 Packed Encoding Rules (PER). Within the context of intelligent transport system (previously known as RTTT/TICS), intermodal goods transport AVI/AEI systems have the specific objective of achieving a unique or unambiguous positive identification of equipment and to make that identification automatically. ISO 17262 defines data to achieve this particular objective.
Who is ISO 17262 - Intelligent transport systems for?
ISO 17262 on Intelligent transport systems is useful for:
- ITS regulation authority
- Goods transport
- AVI/AEI system manufacturing companies
Why should you use ISO 17262 - Intelligent transport systems?
Within the context of Intelligent transport systems (ITS), intermodal goods transport AVI/AEI systems have the specific objective of achieving a unique or unambiguous positive identification of equipment and making that identification automatically.
ISO 17262 helps to defines data to achieve this particular objective.
ISO 17262 specifies helpful data that enable future upward integration and expansion for intermodal goods transport AVI/AEI systems.
ISO 17262 is designed to be flexible and enabling rather than prescriptive which helps to improve in Intelligent transport systems (ITS).
What’s changed since the last update?
BS EN ISO 17262:2012+A1:2019 supersedes ISO/TS 17262:2003 which has been withdrawn. BS EN ISO 17262:2012+A1:2019 has been editorially revised.
