Location and Time Data Source --> Field:
location and time

Definitions

location and time (Information Flow): The current geographic location in three dimensions (latitude, longitude, elevation) and the current time.

Location and Time Data Source (Source Physical Object): The 'Location and Time Data Source' provides accurate position information. While a Global Positioning System (GPS) Receiver is the most common implementation, this physical object represents any technology that provides a position fix in three dimensions and time with sufficient accuracy.

Field (Destination Physical Object): This general physical object is used to model core capabilities that are common to any piece of field equipment.

Communication Solutions

  • GNSS Data - GNSS serial interface (6)
Solutions are sorted in ascending Gap Severity order. The Gap Severity is the parenthetical number at the end of the solution.

Selected Solution

GNSS Data - GNSS serial interface

Solution Description

This solution is used within Australia, the E.U. and the U.S.. It combines standards associated with GNSS Data with those for GNSS serial interface. The GNSS Data standards include upper-layer standards required to obtain location and time information from a satellite-positioning-system-based geolocation receiver. The GNSS serial interface standards include lower-layer standards that support communications between connected ITS equipment and geolocation equipment such as a GPS receiver.

Interoperability Description
Local In cases where an interface is normally encapsulated by a single stakeholder, interoperability is still desirable, but the motive is vendor independence and the efficiencies and choices that an open standards-based interface provides.

Security

Information Flow Security
  Confidentiality Integrity Availability
Rating Moderate High High
Basis While time reference should be universally available, time reference coupled with vehicle location is tracking data. This flow is internal to a vehicle, but should probably be encrypted to discourage hacking and snooping on the vehicle bus. Thus MODERATE. Location and time data is the basis for crash imminent safety and a host of other applications. Corruption of this flow could lead directly to a vehicle accident. If this information is not available, crash imminent safety applications depending on this information will not function properly.
