R. Ice made a short presentation regarding Version 2 of the ITS National Architecture, which has just been completed. These changes affect the Emergency Management subsystem.
It was decided to move location out of the message header and into the appropriate messages. Also, to generalize location referencing to embrace all LRMS profiles. The sending center’s ID was removed from the header, since it would be provided by the protocol.
Time-stamping needs to be made more versatile to accommodate sequences of actions taken by a center and passed to another center, even though the information itself hasn’t changed. This affects the UpdateTime, UpdateCount, and UpdateType.
The concept of data reliability was discussed and tabled.
Management center Ids and names were deleted as data elements.
IncidentStatus was moved out of the header into appropriate
message bodies.
