Traffic Management Data Dictionary (TMDD) and
Message Sets for External Traffic Management Center Communications (MS/ETMCC)
The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), working cooperatively with the Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) and the American Association
of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO),
is leading a national effort to develop a standardized Traffic Management Data Dictionary
(TMDD). A companion effort in this cooperative program is developing Message Sets for
External Traffic Management Center Communications (MS/ETMCC) which occur between
(TMCs) and other external Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) centers. These
message sets are based on the data elements as defined in the TMDD. This Home Page is
intended to provide you with information on these efforts. In addition, various products
will be posted to this site following their development. This information should be of
general interest to those involved in ITS standards development and specifically of
interest to those involved in designing and operating Advanced Transportation Management
Systems (ATMS). Also see the TMDD Web site, www.tmdd.org.

TMDD documents released 8-30-07 for review.
The following documents have been released by the contractor for technical review; we will be breaking the review down into the smaller groups as discussed at the TMDD meeting in San Diego. There are several documents as follows:
- Volume I identifies and describe the needs and requirements for a traffic management center (TMC) to provide services to external centers (EC) via a communications interface. This subject area is frequently called external traffic management center communications (ETMCC).
- The purpose of this Volume II: TMDD MS/ETMCC Design Content includes the data concept definitions (dialogs, messages, data frames, data elements, and object classes) for the TMDD MS/ETMCC. This document serves as a design specification for the TMDD and includes ETMCC ISO 14817 definitions for the ETMCC and XML-specific ETMCC reference model.
- This is the same as the above, but without tracking changes
