Introduction
Many ITS technologies have been embraced by commercial transport operators and freight owners, in the
areas of fleet management, safety and security. Telematics applications have also been developed for
governmental use. While the regulatory services in use or being considered varies from country to country,
these include services such as charging, digital tachograph, hazardous goods tracking and e-call. Additional
applications with a regulatory impact being developed include access monitoring, on-board mass monitoring,
fatigue management, speed monitoring and heavy vehicle charging based on mass, location, distance and
time.
In such an emerging environment of regulatory and commercial applications, it is timely to consider an overall
architecture (business and functional) that could support these functions from a single platform within a
commercial vehicle that operate within such regulations. Such International Standards will allow for a speedy
development and specification of new applications that build upon the functionality of a generic specification
platform. This suite of standards deliverables describes and defines the framework and requirements so that
the in-vehicle system [4.7] can be commercially designed in an open market to meet common requirements.
This suite of standards deliverables will provide the basis for future development of cooperative telematics
applications for regulated commercial freight vehicles [4.14]. Many elements to accomplish this are already
available. Existing relevant standards will be referenced, and the specifications will use existing standards
(such as CALM) wherever practicable.
This suite of standards deliverables will also allow for a powerful platform for highly cost-effective delivery of a
range of telematics applications for regulated commercial freight vehicles [4.14].
Finally, a business architecture based on a (multiple) service provider [4.15] oriented approach will also require
consideration of legal and regulatory aspects for the approval authority [4.3] approval and auditing of service
providers [4.7].
This suite of standards deliverables is timely as many governments (Europe, North America, Asia and
Australia/New Zealand) are considering the use of telematics for a range of regulatory purposes. Ensuring that
a single in-vehicle platform can deliver a range of services to both government and industry through open
standards and competitive markets is a strategic objective.
This suite of standards deliverables addresses and defines the framework for a range of cooperative
telematics applications for regulated commercial freight vehicles [4.14] (such as access monitoring, driver
fatigue management, speed monitoring, on-board mass monitoring and charging). The overall scope includes
the concept of operation, legal and regulatory issues, and the generic cooperative ITS service platform. The
framework will be based on a (multiple) service provider [4.15] oriented approach provisions for the approval
authority [4.3] approval and auditing of service providers.
This part of the ISO 15638 family of standards deliverables provides specifications for generic basic vehicle
data [4.4] that it is required for all IVSs to support and make available to application service providers [4.15]
using the IVS wireless communications link(s), in order to support the provision of regulated and commercial
application services for TARVs; and provides basic vehicle data for cooperative intelligent transport systems.
NOTE The definition of what comprises a ‘regulated’ vehicle is regarded as an issue for national decision, and may
vary from country to country. This suite of standards deliverables does not impose any requirements on nations in respect
of how they define a regulated vehicle.
NOTE The definition of what comprises a ‘regulated’ service is regarded as an issue for national decision, and may
vary from country to country. This suite of standards deliverables does not impose any requirements on nations in respect
of which services for regulated vehicles countries will require, or support as an option, but will provide standardised sets of
requirements descriptions for identified services to enable consistent and cost efficient implementations where
implemented.

NOTE Cooperative ITS applications, in this context, are defined as the use of an in-vehicle ITS platform to meet both
commercial and regulatory needs from a (functionally) single on-board platform.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 15638-5:2013(E)

Intelligent transport systems — Framework for collaborative
Telematics Applications for Regulated commercial freight
Vehicles (TARV) —
Part 5:
Generic vehicle information
1 Scope
This part of ISO 15638 defines generic basic vehicle and core application data [4.5] provision to application
service providers [4.15] to be supported by in-vehicle system [4.7] (IVS) for cooperative telematics applications
for regulated commercial freight vehicles [4.14] (TARV), and to provide basic vehicle data [4.4] for cooperative
intelligent transport systems.
This part of ISO 15638 provides the specifications for generic basic vehicle data [4.4] that it is required for all
TARV IVSs to support and make available to application service providers [4.15] via a wireless communications
link supported by the IVS, in order to support the provision of regulated and commercial application services.
Some further data concepts, while not required in all cases for every TARV in every jurisdiction [4.9], may be
required generically for all equipment within a particular jurisdiction [4.9], or class of TARV within a jurisdiction
[4.9], in order for the jurisdiction to achieve its regulation of TARVs.
Equipped vehicles operating internationally will need to carry all of the additional data concepts required by all
of the jurisdictions [4.9] within which they operate, in order to determine their core application data [4.5]. This
part of ISO 15638 provides standard definitions for these commonly expected additional data concepts.
A second set of (largely complementary) ‘basic vehicle’ data is required to support interoperable cooperative
intelligent transport systems and this is also determined and provided within this part of ISO 15638. The
framework architecture and many of the protocols are common between both (TARV and C-ITS) sets of
requirements, and also with those being adopted by the wider cooperative ITS sector.
2 Conformance
This part of ISO 15638 defines specifications for generic basic vehicle data [4.4] that it is required for all IVSs
to support and make available to application service providers [4.15] using the IVS wireless communications
link(s), in order to support the provision of regulated and commercial application services for TARVs; and
provides basic vehicle data for cooperative intelligent transport systems., and has no specific conformance
tests defined herein, however Clause 10 specifies which tests may be required. Some aspects defined within
may have conformance tests defined in other parts of ISO 15638.
Conformance to any other International Standard or specification referenced in this part of ISO 15638 shall be
ascertained according to the requirements of the referenced deliverable.
Conformance to this part of ISO 15638 is therefore a matter of self-declaration of compliance, or by
submission to a test house to ascertain that the provisions of the clauses of this part of ISO 15638 have been
adhered to.
The protocols defined in this part of ISO 15638 have been independently tested. Annex C (Informative)
provides results of these tests. In any conformance assurance process undertaken by candidate systems,
where appropriate the results may be used as part of its process of conformance compliance.

Figure 1 — Role model conceptual architecture
(Source: ISO 15638-1)
To understand more clearly the TARV framework in detail the reader is referred to ISO 15638-1.
ISO 15638 provides a suite of standards deliverables addresses and defines the framework for a range of
cooperative telematics applications for regulated commercial freight vehicles (such as access monitoring,
driver fatigue management, speed monitoring, on-board mass monitoring and charging). The overall scope
includes the concept of operation, legal and regulatory issues, and the generic cooperative ITS service
platform. The framework is based on a (multiple) service provider [4.15] oriented approach provisions for the
approval authority [4.3] approval and auditing of service providers.
ISO 15638 is comprised of seven framework parts and twelve application specific parts. The framework parts
are:
 Part 1: Framework and architecture
 Part 2: Common platform parameters using CALM
 Part 3: Operating requirements, 'Approval Authority' procedures, and enforcement provisions for the
providers of regulated services
Appoints
Exception
Reports
 Part 4: System security requirements
 Part 5:Generic vehicle information
 Part 6: Regulated applications [Technical Specification]
 Part 7: Other applications
While specific application services [4.2], both regulated and commercial, will have their own application specific
requirements for data provided by the IVS or harvested by the IVS from connected equipment and
instruments, some generic data is required by many, if not most, and in some cases all, application services
for regulated commercial vehicles.
It is therefore required that, while not designing the functionality or physical form of any IVS (which is
considered a function of the marketplace or jurisdictions [4.9] who are regulating in order to implement), that
the generic information known within the ISO 15638 suite of standards deliverables as basic vehicle data [4.4],
shall be supported by all IVSs.
(for example, shall have a unique identifier, collect time and location data, etc.)
Some further data concepts, while not required in all cases for every TARV in every jurisdiction [4.9], may be
required generically for all equipment within a particular jurisdiction, or class of TARV within a jurisdiction, in
order for the jurisdiction to achieve its regulation of TARVs. A number of these data concepts, which are
expected to frequently be required are, for reasons of interoperability, defined within this part of ISO 15638.
The combination of basic vehicle data [4.4] and those additional data concepts required within a particular
jurisdiction [4.9] (or class of TARVs) are known as core application data [4.5] for that jurisdiction. Basic vehicle
data [4.4] will therefore be found in all equipped TARVs, while core application data [4.5] will be found in all
equipped TARVs (or class of TARVs) within a particular jurisdiction.
Equipped vehicles operating internationally will need to carry all of the additional data concepts required by all
of the jurisdictions [4.9] within which they operate, in order to determine their core application data [4.5]. By
providing standard definitions for these commonly expected additional data concepts, this will be easy to
achieve and provide international interoperability.
This part (15638-5) provides definition for generic vehicle information, and simple means for authorised actors
to download that information. This information comprises:
 basic vehicle data [4.4] provided by the TARV LDT [4.10]* for TARV applications (local data tree [4.10]);
 basic vehicle data [4.4] provided by the C-ITS LDT [4.10]* for cooperative intelligent transport systems
(particularly cooperative safety related systems);
