FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS

Click on a Project Inventory element from the list above to view functional requirements.

Roadway Speed Monitoring and Warning

  • The field element shall include sensors to detect vehicle speeds, under traffic or maintenance center control.
  • If the speed detected by vehicle speed sensors is determined to be excessive, the field element shall provide a safe speed advisory to passing drivers via a driver information system (such as portable messages signs, field to vehicle communications to in-vehicle signing systems, etc.).

TMC Speed Monitoring and Warning

  • The center shall collect fault data for the vehicle speed sensors for repair.
  • The center shall remotely control vehicle speed sensors and control parameters may include environmental and traffic conditions.

Hawaii Department of Transportation, Highways Division, Kauai District
Operate changeable speed limit signs, including collecting traffic count information from the devices.
 

The Hawaiian language uses two diacritical markings. The 'okina is a glottal stop; and the kahako is a macron. The State of Hawaii strongly encourages the use of Hawaiian diacritical markings. The National ITS Architecture tool, Turbo Architecture, does not allow for the Hawaiian diacritical markings to be input and as such, customized service package diagrams, operational concepts and other outputs from Turbo are unable to reflect the diacritical markings. To ensure consistency in this ITS Architecture website, no Hawaiian diacritical markings will be used.
