Intelligent transport systems — Cooperative ITS — Dictionary of in-vehicle information (IVI) data structures

This document specifies the in-vehicle information (IVI) data structures that are required by different intelligent transport system (ITS) services for exchanging information between ITS Stations (ITS-S). A general, extensible data structure is specified, which is split into structures called containers to accommodate current-day information. Transmitted information includes IVI such as contextual speed, road works warnings, vehicle restrictions, lane restrictions, road hazard warnings, location-based services, re-routing. The information in the containers is organized in sub-structures called data frames and data elements, which are described in terms of its content and its syntax. The data structures are specified as communications agnostic. This document does not provide the communication protocols. This document provides scenarios for usage of the data structure, e.g. in case of real time, short-range communications.

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).

The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows.
— The Scope has been edited.
— Several containers have been renamed or newly introduced and an "Automated Vehicle Container"
has been added to better manage automated vehicles.
— The abstract syntax notation one (ASN.1) code in Annex A has been captured separately. This edition
is backwards compatible with the previous edition in that it adds information elements (e.g. data
elements and data frames) to the IVI Structure by using ASN.1 extensions. The ASN.1 extension
feature ensures that implementations of the previous edition can correctly parse IVI Structures
compliant with this edition and process the information specified in the previous edition without
needing knowledge about the extensions.
— The former Annex B has been replaced with new visual examples.
— C-Roads and Eco-AT documents have been added to the Bibliography.
— Data types are imported from ISO 14823 which are backwards compatible with the first edition of

Introduction
In a Cooperative Intelligent Transport System (C-ITS), presenting information related to the traffic
situation or regulation of a road to the driver of a vehicle is an important component of road operations.
The road operators are responsible for road setup, operation, signage, and maintenance for traffic
management and road safety, and in some countries, also for the enforcement of road laws. For road
operators, efficient transport of vehicles on roadways ensures a safe and predictable trip for all road
users. Road operators, together with equipment manufacturers, whether of vehicles or of roadside
equipment, contribute to how road information is properly presented to drivers.
So far, one defined C-ITS method for notifying road users of road and/or traffic situations and events
is by transmission of messages such as Cooperative Awareness Messages (CAM), Decentralized
Environment Notification Messages (DENM), or Basic Safety Messages (BSM).
This document supports mandatory and advisory road signage such as contextual speeds and road
works warnings. In-vehicle information can be sent by an ITS Station (ITS-S) and either corresponds to
physical road signs such as static or variable road signs or does not correspond to physical road signs (a
virtual sign) or corresponds to road works. In-vehicle information (IVI) does not include identification
of road events as already provided by DENM.
This document provides a toolbox of information elements for IVI. It can be used to fulfil the
requirements of the service provider considering the needs of receiving ITS-S. The container concept
provides a way for an ITS-S to manage the relevant IVI information, determine where the IVI is relevant,
and to provide details for the application of IVI. The description of data elements encompasses the data
syntax and semantics, i.e. a definition of data format and content, together with a description of how to
use those data elements.
This document is of an enabling nature. It does not specify which information is necessary for a certain
service, but it supports those IVI information elements that can be necessary to be transmitted to a
receiving ITS-S to carry out a certain service. Usage of the IVI information elements depends on the
specific context and application of IVI for a specific service and usage is established as mandatory or
optional only for messaging purposes, not for application purposes. The IVI Structure is intended to be
profiled to fulfil the requirements of a specific service.
This document refers to ISO 14823 as one system of standardized codes for existing road signs codes.
NOTE ISO 14823 does not contain codes for specific national or regional signs that are not commonly used,
and it does not represent a catalogue of road sign pictograms for all applicable nations.
