ISO/TS 19468:2019(E)
Introduction
This document defines a common set of data exchange specifications to support the vision of a seamless
interoperable exchange of traffic and travel information across boundaries, including national, urban,
interurban, road administrations, infrastructure providers and service providers. Standardisation in
this context is a vital constituent to ensure interoperability, reduction of risk, reduction of the cost
base, promotion of open marketplaces and many social, economic and community benefits to be gained
from more informed travellers, network managers and transport operators.
Especially in Europe, delivering transport policy in line with the White Paper issued by the European
Commission requires co-ordination of traffic management and development of seamless pan European
services. With the aim to support sustainable mobility in Europe, the European Commission has been
supporting the development of information exchange mainly between the actors of the road traffic
management domain for a number of years.
This document supports a methodology that is extensible.
To be able to successfully connect systems and start exchanging data, in an interoperable and easy
way, there is a need to describe and agree on how the exchange should be done. This is set out in a data
exchange specification. Data exchange in different scenarios can have different needs and requirements.
Therefore, several data exchange specifications can be needed.
Data exchange specifications need to address two main issues. First, they model the stakeholders
and actors involved in data exchange, each potentially in different roles, as well as abstract exchange
patterns for their interactions. Second, they select a suitable implementation platform and clearly
specify how the abstract scenarios and patterns are effectively implemented on this platform.
The following diagram in Figure 1 shows such an abstract communication scenario from the perspective
of a road operator who requires data exchange interfaces between the different components of its own
operational systems, either between centre side components or between centre and field devices, but
also to exchange information with other road operators or service providers.
Figure 1 — Abstract communication scenario
While the black links between centre side components and field devices may use a variety of
communication protocols, mostly depending on the physical link conditions, the vast majority
ISO/TS 19468:2019(E)
of other coloured links between centre-side components, internal to one organisation or external
to others, is based on an IP network and mostly use the TCP transport layer protocol (UDP is also
possible in a few cases).
Nevertheless, as the different colours indicate, they can very well have significantly different
requirements. Internal links (blue) can reside in one domain of trust, hence do not require protocols
compatible with security gateways. This can already be different for links to other road operators
(red) and will certainly not hold for links to other types of organisations, like service providers, via the
Internet (green).
While different security requirements offer the most striking and obvious example, there are more
criteria that can lead to different preferences on different types of links, e.g. scalability, robustness,
integration complexity.
In broad terms, the colours blue – red – green form a hierarchy from more internal, closely-coupled,
well-integrated systems towards external, loosely-coupled, and non-integrated systems. The
world of information and communication technology (ICT) offers a broad range of solutions for these
different scenarios, offering different advantages and disadvantages. It is obvious that the one-size-
fits-all principle will not provide the most efficient way of working here. Even on the highest level of
abstraction and inside the ICT domain itself, we already find a well-known battle of paradigms between
remote-procedure-call (RPC) type service specifications and RESTful architectures. The same clusters
of options are found in the domain of ITS standards, where for example the European standard for
the real-time information interface relating to public transport operations (SIRI – EN 15531 series)
introduces both concepts as complementary options: Publish-Subscribe and Request-Response.
As well, the ITS station architecture is not in contradiction with this document but is complementary
of what is defined in this document. According to the principles and the taxonomy defined in ISO 21217,
this document defines a conceptual notion of:
— How 2 central ITS (sub) stations could communicate to:
— deliver (application data units) information,
— negotiate functional service behaviour for collaborating traffic management functions (even if
this use case could not directly be matched to ISO 21217 as it is not about information delivery).
— How a Central ITS (sub) station could communicate to deliver information (application data units) to
another ITS station with the characteristics of a central ITS station.
This document specifies the process of defining the exchange characteristics by use case-driven feature
selection of relevant parameters for the relevant OSI layers as defined in ISO 21217. Two exchange
schemas are considered: Information delivery and Functional service negotiation between central ITS
stations.
The drafting of this document was guided by the following principles:
— Interoperability, such that different implementations can successfully engage in a data exchange
process;
— Support legacy implementations which are based on existing (exchange) specification, in order to
maximize investments already made by stakeholders;
— Address other user profiles, not only road operators, and thus make this document available to a
broader audience;
— Reuse of existing (communications) standards, in order to reduce implementation complexity and
take benefit of proven and already existent solutions for common ICT problems;
— Clear separation between the payload content and the exchange model.
The informative Annex A details the adopted methodology for defining this exchange Platform
Independent Model.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION ISO/TS 19468:2019(E)
Intelligent transport systems — Data interfaces between
centres for transport information and control systems
— Platform independent model specifications for data
exchange protocols for transport information and
control systems
1 Scope
This document defines and specifies component facets supporting the exchange and shared use of data
and information in the field of traffic and travel.
The component facets include the framework and context for exchanges, the data content, structure and
relationships necessary and the communications specification, in such a way that they are independent
from any defined technical platform.
This document establishes specifications for data exchange between any two instances of the
following actors:
— Traffic Information Centres (TIC);
— Traffic Control Centres/Traffic Management Centres (TCC/TMC);
— Service Providers (SP).
This document can be applied for use by other actors, e.g. car park operators.
This document includes the following types of information:
— the use cases and associated requirements, and features relative to different exchange situations;
— the different functional exchange profiles;
— the abstract elements for protocols;
— the data model for exchange (informational structures, relationships, roles, attributes and associated
data types required).
In order to set up a new technical exchange framework, it is necessary to associate one functional
exchange profile with a technical platform providing an interoperability domain where plug-and-play
interoperability at technical level can be expected. The definition of such interoperability domains is not
part of this document but can be found in other standards or technical specifications, e.g. ISO 14827-3.
This document is restricted to data exchange. Definition of payload content models is beyond the scope
of this document.

5 Exchange modelling framework
5.1 Overview
The model driven approach is chosen to describe exchange: this leads to describe exchange systems
by means of abstract models which are named Platform Independent Model (PIM), in which modelling
of exchange features is done by describing interaction among systems and subsystems as exchange
patterns. These interactions implement system capabilities as features which fulfil exchange
requirements requested by specific business scenarios which are used to specify specific uses of
exchange.
Since simple data exchange process is no longer sufficient for resolving all business needs, this
document encompasses more business functions as stakeholders consolidate their systems and look at
new ways to address the requests they encounter with the tools they already know and have in place.
