Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out 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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
In other circumstances, particularly when there is an urgent market requirement for such documents, a
technical committee may decide to publish other types of document:
— an ISO Publicly Available Specification (ISO/PAS) represents an agreement between technical experts in
an ISO working group and is accepted for publication if it is approved by more than 50 % of the members
of the parent committee casting a vote;
— an ISO Technical Specification (ISO/TS) represents an agreement between the members of a technical
committee and is accepted for publication if it is approved by 2/3 of the members of the committee casting
a vote.
An ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is reviewed after three years in order to decide whether it will be confirmed for a
further three years, revised to become an International Standard, or withdrawn. If the ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is
confirmed, it is reviewed again after a further three years, at which time it must either be transformed into an
International Standard or be withdrawn.
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.
ISO/TS 18234-11 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee
CEN/TC 278, Road transport and traffic telematics, in collaboration with ISO Technical Committee TC 204,

Introduction
TPEG technology uses a byte-oriented data stream format, which may be carried on almost any digital bearer
with an appropriate adaptation layer. TPEG messages are delivered from service providers to end-users and
used to transfer information from the database of a service provider to an end-user’s equipment.
The brief history of TPEG technology development dates back to the European Broadcasting Union (EBU)
Broadcast Management Committee establishing the B/TPEG project group in autumn 1997 with the mandate
to develop, as soon as possible, a new protocol for broadcasting traffic and travel-related information in the
multimedia environment. TPEG technology, its applications and service features are designed to enable
travel-related messages to be coded, decoded, filtered and understood by humans (visually and/or audibly in
the user’s language) and by agent systems.
One year later in December 1998, the B/TPEG group produced its first EBU specifications. Two documents
were released. Part 2 (TPEG1-SSF, which became ISO/TS 18234-2) described the Syntax, Semantics and
Framing structure, which is used for all TPEG applications. Part 4 (TPEG1-RTM, which became
ISO/TS 18234-4 described the first application, for Road Traffic Messages.
Subsequently, CEN/TC 278/WG 4, in conjunction with ISO/TC 204/WG 10, established a project group
comprising the members of B/TPEG and they continued the work concurrently since March 1999. Since then
two further parts were developed to make the initial complete set of four parts, enabling the implementation of
a consistent service. Part 3 (TPEG1-SNI, ISO/TS 18234-3) describes the Service and Network Information
Application, which should be used by all service implementations to ensure appropriate referencing from one
service source to another. Part 1 (TPEG1-INV, ISO/TS 18234-1), completes the series, by describing the
other parts and their relationship; it also contains the application IDs used within the other parts. Additionally,
Part 5, the Public Transport Information Application (TPEG1-PTI, ISO/TS 18234-5) and TPEG1-LRC,
ISO/TS 18234-6), were developed.
This Technical Specification adds a powerful mechanism for the ISO/TS 18234 series, allowing detailed road
event information to be encoded and transmitted to the user; it was developed specifically to satisfy the need
for a number of location referencing methods for Navigation Systems for worldwide markets. This Technical
Specification includes new datatypes as specified in Annex A.
TPEG applications are now developed using UML modelling and a software tool is used to automatically
select content which then populates this Technical Specification. Diagrammatic extracts from the model are
used to show the capability of the binary coding in place of lengthy text descriptions; the diagrams do not
necessarily include all relevant content possible.
During the development of the TPEG technology a number of versions have been documented and various
trials implemented using various versions of the specifications. At the time of the publication of this Technical
Specification, the original parts are fully inter-workable and no specific dependencies exist. Now, however, at
least for TPEG1-TEC, profiles are used to define which Applications should be used together. For example
TPEG1-TEC is used only with TPEG1-LRC containing DLR1 and never with TPEG1-LOC.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purpose of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
NOTE Digital map-based systems, either on the message generation side or the client (end-user) side tend to be
based upon road mapping rather than, for example, rail track mapping. Therefore, throughout ISO/TS 18234 (all parts)
there is a tendency to use roads as examples. However, roads are not necessarily implied, so the use and context of an
element must be clarified.
3.1
dynamic location reference
location reference generated on the fly based on geographic properties in a digital map database
3.2
location referencing
means to provide information that allows a system to identify a location accurately
Note 1 to entry: The content of a location reference allows the location to be presented in a plain-language manner directly
to the end-user (i.e. text, speech or icons) or to be used for navigational purposes, for example, for map-based systems.
3.3
location referencing container
concept applied to the grouping of all the location referencing elements of a TPEG Message together in one
place
Note 1 to entry: Many TPEG applications are designed to deliver TPEG messages, which consist of three high level
containers, each with one or more elements. These containers are for message management, event information and
location referencing information. Note that some special application messages do NOT include a location referencing
container, such as a cancellation message. It should also be noted that each container does not necessarily have all
possible lower level elements included.
Figure 1 shows the “container view” structure used, for example, when a TPEG1-RTM (See ISO/TS 18234-4) application
message is generated to describe a road event and location references need to be given to the end-user.

Figure 1 — The “container view” of a TPEG Message
The main purpose of the location referencing container is to provide both human understandable and machine-readable
elements to appropriate client decoders. It may be delivered to a “thin client”, which for example is only able to convey
limited location referencing information to the end-user, or it may be delivered to a “thick client” using a considerable
number of elements and using considerable processing power to filter the information for a comprehensive display to an
end-user.

3.4
message
collection of coherent information sent through the information channel describing an event, a collection of
related events, or status information and including message management information
3.5
pre-coded location reference
location reference using a unique identifier that is agreed upon in both sender and receiver systems to select
a location from a set of pre-coded locations
3.6
TPEG-LOC
TPEG Location
native TPEG location referencing method focused on providing location references for various TPEG
applications, which are designed for delivering messages to end-users
Note 1 to entry: Since TPEG-LOC is designed for delivering messages to end-users, some definitions have a meaning
which is different from that found in other location referencing systems.
Note 2 to entry: An important aspect of the TPEG-LOC referencing method is that a location description may be created
on-the-fly by the service provider when needed. It may then be interpreted and used by the TPEG-decoder, and then
discarded. The pre-creation of codes and the use of a database and code maintenance is entirely avoided.

5.1 TPEG-LRC Introduction
TPEG applications are described by the TPEG specifications in this Technial Specification series and are
placed at the highest layers of the OSI protocol stack, ISO/IEC 7498-1:1994. Each TPEG application (e.g.
TPEG1-RTM) is assigned a unique Application IDentification (AID) number. In this respect, the TPEG1-LRC is
not an application, but it is an essential constituent part of all TPEG Messages requiring location referencing.
To satisfy the principles of the TPEG technology, location referencing requires the transmission of data that
will allow a client to present such details to a human, directly as text, speech, graphics or a combination of
these, to recreate a comprehensible representation of a real-world place.
Generally, location referencing comes in three distinct types:
 pre-coded, where a number of locations are fixed in a list and the same list must be used by the service
provider as well as by the client device decoder;
 dynamic, where locations are encoded on-the-fly and decoded by the client device with no specific prior
knowledge;
 hybrid, a mixture of the two.
The key concept of the TPEG1-LRC design is that it allows any location referencing method presently
identified to be specified in this Technical Specification (and allows for future extension methods to be
identified and agreed), to be used within any TPEG Message. Indeed a service provider may implement the
use of any one or more location references per TPEG Message. The choice will depend upon market driven
factors and thus there is full service provision choice for both transitional and long-term location referencing
requirements.
To date, seven location referencing methods have been identified as suitable for use within TPEG1-LRC. In
alphabetical order they are: DLR1, Korean Node Link Location, Extended TMC Location Reference,
Geographic Location Reference, TMC Location, TPEG-Location and VICS Link Location. These are further
described in 6.2. These location referencing methods are detailed in other specifications (see Clause 2,
Normative references) and they may be used by inserting the location data, encoded according to their
specification, into the TPEG1-LRC. The LRC ensures a stable way to identify the method in use and thus
allows client decoder(s) to choose what location method(s) are present in the message for their use.

The DLR1 location referencing method is a dynamic location referencing method developed by ISO/TC 204.
The method is designed to provide compact location references that allow accurate location referencing for
100 % of the road network. DLR1 location references are machine readable and are primarily aimed at
