DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
ITS Joint Program Office; Core System Requirements Walkthrough
and Architecture Proposal Review Meetings and Webinars; Notice of
Public Meeting
AGENCY: Research and Innovative Technology Administration, U.S.
Department of Transportation.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
On June 13, 2011, a notice announcing two free public meetings with
accompanying webinars was to have taken place later this month and in
September 2011. The dates of the meetings and webinars were incorrect.
The USDOT is publishing this notice to correct the dates.
The USDOT ITS Joint Program Office (ITS JPO) will host two free
public meetings with accompanying webinars to discuss the Vehicle to
Infrastructure (V2I) Core System Requirements and Architecture
Proposal. The first meeting, June 28-30, 2011, 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m. at the
University of California--Washington Center, 1608 Rhode Island Ave.,
NW., Washington, DC 20036; (202) 974-6200, will walk through the review
of System Requirements Specification and Architecture Proposal. The
second meeting will be a review of the System Requirements
Specification and Architecture Proposal and will take place on
September 20-22, 2011, 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m. at the San Jose Garden Inn,
1740 North First Street, San Jose, CA 95112; (408) 793-3300. To learn
more about the ITS JPO, visit the program's Web site at http://www.its.dot.gov.
The V2I Core System will support applications for safety, mobility,
and sustainability for various modes of transportation including
passenger vehicles, transit, and heavy trucks. This is the successor to
work originally performed under the Vehicle Infrastructure Integration
Proof of Concept (VII POC). The Core System supports a distributed,
diverse set of applications.
Connected Vehicle research at the USDOT is a multimodal program
that involves using wireless communication between vehicles,
infrastructure, and personal communications devices to improve safety,
mobility, and environmental sustainability. The program is the major
research initiative of the ITS JPO which is currently working with the
eight major automotive companies to develop vehicle crash warning
applications using Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC)
technology. In addition, the ITS JPO is working to develop a myriad of
applications which will use data collected from connected vehicles that
can improve safety, mobility and sustainability. There is also
connected vehicle-related research in the areas of standards, data
collection, certification, policy, road weather, and public
transportation.
Persons planning to attend the first public meeting should send
their full name, organization, and business e-mail address to Adam
Hoops at ITS America at Ahopps@ITSA.org by June 24, 2011. Persons
planning to attend the second public meeting should send their full
name, organization, and business e-mail address to Adam Hoops at ITS
America at Ahopps@ITSA.org by September 15, 2011. Please note that if
