Standards Development

Scope

EU-ICIP

will explain to and enable urban administrations, road authorities and EU Member states to understand the mesh of standards needed to attain their goals for Urban –ITS, and ITS in general, and provide guidelines to move from abstract architectural concepts to effective instantiation. EUICIP will support a family of open (existent) standards, referencing both common and CITS communications protocols and related data definitions, that in combinations enable UrbanITS/ITS to function and be managed, and will reference application standards where appropriate/ available. EUICIP will provide guidance, information and consistency for agencies implementing and operating UrbanITS/ ITS. EUICIP will assist interagency coordination and allows equipment of different types and different manufacturers to be mixed within the same communicating systems; informing potential users of the compatibilities and incompatibility issues of various options, and provide the opportunity for training, and guidance to universities to assist training programmes for ITS experts. The work required is proposed in 2 parts a) identification and description of standardised ITS protocols and standards required to support ITS, by the production of a ‘Guide’ to explain how aspects of UrbanITS can be achieved through combinations/clusters.

EI ICIP achieves this by summarising the key requirements in each its work area and providing direct reference to/and summaries of, the standards deliveries available in that work area.

Purpose

Conversion of PWI 00278427 from PWI to TR

CEN PT 1712 has been appointed to develop this work. The PWI envisaged a TS but CCMC have advised ( with the assent of EC DG MOVE/GROW), that as this deliverable has no NEW requirements, it should be a TR.
