ITS Standards Program

    ITS standards are industry-consensus standards that define how system components operate within a consistent framework, which is the National ITS Architecture . The program is working toward the widespread use of standards to encourage the interoperability of ITS systems. Through cooperative agreements with five standards development organizations (SDOs), the Standards Program is accelerating development of about 100 non-proprietary, industry-based, consensus ITS standards, and is encouraging public-sector participation in the development process.

    Resource Documents
    Deployment: Case studies, user guides, lessons learned. Slide Presentations: from various conferences and meetings. Topical reports on various standards-related topics.

    Fact Sheets
    Grouped by lead SDO, alphabetically by title, or by application area.

    ITS Standards Database
    Search the database and produce a summary report, including contact and purchasing info, on any of the standards being tracked by the ITS Standards Program.

    Searches by deployment status: Published, Approved, In Ballot or Under Development.

    ITS Standards Testing
    Testing is an important step toward interoperable ITS systems because it provides information to potential users on the reliability, inter-operability, functionality, and performance of systems based upon the standards. The objective of ITS standards testing activities is to "prove" the standards in real transportation settings and build confidence in the standards. The U.S. DOT’s program to test ITS standards is being carried out by the Battelle Memorial Institute.

Traffic Management Data Dictionary (TMDD)
The Traffic Management Data Dictionary and Message Sets for External Traffic Management Center Communications Standards work together to provide a high level of interoperability among regional and local systems/centers, providing consistent names, definitions, and concepts similar to spelling and parts of speech to the word-like ãdata elementsä. The TMDD enables concepts from traffic management to be defined and used in the same way by different systems and centers, while also providing for the use of locally unique data elements to recognize the individuality of each system or center.
