Project Functional Requirements (Element - Functional Object):

• FTE Data Collection Field Equipment - Roadway Basic Surveillance
• 1: The field element shall collect, process, digitize, and send traffic sensor data (speed, volume, and occupancy) to the center for further analysis and storage, under center control.
• 2: The field element shall collect, process, and send traffic images to the center for further analysis and distribution.
• 4: The field element shall return sensor and CCTV system operational status to the controlling center.


• FTE Data Dissemination Field Equipment - Roadway Traffic Information Dissemination
• 1: The field element shall include dynamic message signs for dissemination of traffic and other information to drivers, under center control; the DMS may be either those that display variable text messages, or those that have fixed format display(s) (e.g. vehicle restrictions, or lane open/close).
• 3: The field element shall provide operational status for the driver information systems equipment (DMS, HAR, etc.) to the center.


• FTE Operations Center (Pompano) - TMC Basic Surveillance
• 1: The center shall monitor, analyze, and store traffic sensor data (speed, volume, occupancy) collected from field elements under remote control of the center.
• 2: The center shall monitor, analyze, and distribute traffic images from CCTV systems under remote control of the center.


• FTE Operations Center (Pompano) - TMC Situation Data Management
• 1: The center shall collect traffic probe data from vehicles via roadside field equipment.


• FTE Operations Center (Pompano) - TMC Traffic Information Dissemination
• 1: The center shall remotely control dynamic messages signs for dissemination of traffic and other information to drivers.
• 3: The center shall collect operational status for the driver information systems equipment (DMS, HAR, etc.).


• FTE Operations Center (Turkey Lake) - TMC Basic Surveillance
• 1: The center shall monitor, analyze, and store traffic sensor data (speed, volume, occupancy) collected from field elements under remote control of the center.
• 2: The center shall monitor, analyze, and distribute traffic images from CCTV systems under remote control of the center.


• FTE Operations Center (Turkey Lake) - TMC Situation Data Management
• 1: The center shall collect traffic probe data from vehicles via roadside field equipment.


• FTE Operations Center (Turkey Lake) - TMC Traffic Information Dissemination
• 1: The center shall remotely control dynamic messages signs for dissemination of traffic and other information to drivers.
• 3: The center shall collect operational status for the driver information systems equipment (DMS, HAR, etc.).


• FTE Sunpass Toll Collection System - Roadway Toll Collection Support
• 1: The field element shall read data from passing vehicles to support toll payment transactions.
