Mobility integration (ISO TC 204 WG 19)

Domain of interest

The purpose of WG19 is to act as a facilitator for mobility standards development and to harmonize and form consensus for mobility standards. WG 19 provides cross-pollination among other ITS standards groups (e.g., across ISO/TC 204 working groups and with relevant groups within CEN, ETSI, SAE, etc.)

WG19 activities include:

  • Specific mobility integration needs in urban and rural areas, including concepts such as smart cities,
  • Parking and parking integration,
  • Standardisation supporting the public sector (and other) regulation information sharing needs such as electronic traffic regulations (METR) and controlled zones,
  • Harmonization of terminology and related architectural aspects that involves mobility issues benefitting from integration across transport sectors in coordination with WG1
  • Governance support for ITS operations,
  • Automation integration in the overall transport chain, ranging from micromobility in urban areas, such as public-area mobile robots to coordination of automated road vehicles, and
  • Mobility aspects that are cross-cutting and not covered by any single WG in the ITS domain.

Management of electronic traffic regulations (METR)

Overview

The ISO 24315 series on the management of electronic traffic regulations (METR) is intended to provide users access to geo-specific, trustworthy, timely, authoritative and machine-interpretable rules relating to traffic and transport, enacted by jurisdictional entities, including those who define rules for campuses (i.e. private grounds).

ISO/TS 24315-1:2025 Intelligent transport systems — Management of electronic traffic regulations (METR) — Part 1: Vocabulary

Status: Approved

Abstract:

This document defines terms specific to the ISO 24315 series on the management of electronic transport regulations.

METR is designed to assist developers and manufacturers of driving automation systems (i.e., automation Levels 1-5) and driver information systems (including those at automation Level 0) to electronically obtain traffic rules to better enable:

The scope of METR includes both rules that are relatively static (e.g. static speed limits) as well as those that are dynamic (e.g. variable speed limits, signalized intersections). Where appropriate, METR incorporates existing documents (e.g. ISO/TS 19091 for signalized intersections).

Normative References:

There are no normative references in this document.

ISO/TS 24315-2:2025 Intelligent transport systems — Management of electronic traffic regulations (METR) — Part 2: Operational concepts (ConOps)

Status: Approved

Abstract:

The purpose of this document is to describe the operational concept (ConOps) for METR. A ConOps is a user-oriented document that describes system characteristics for a proposed system from the users’ viewpoint. It includes a description of the key stakeholders along with the processes and data flows required to fulfil their responsibilities. It describes what the system will do (not how it will do it) and why (rationale). The ConOps is used to communicate overall quantitative and qualitative system characteristics to the acquirer, user, supplier, and other organizational elements (ISO/IEC/IEEE 29148). The ConOps is a critical tool in building consensus among stakeholders.

Description:

The scope of METR includes both rules that are relatively static (e.g. static speed limits) as well as those that are dynamic (e.g. variable speed limits, signalized intersections). Where appropriate, METR incorporates existing documents (e.g. ISO/TS 19091 for signalized intersections).
