Massoumi, senior vice president and general manager of Transportation Systems at Iteris, said, “Combining the architectures provides one reference architecture for all of ITS in the United States with more breadth and depth than was available before.”
Iteris reports it led the development and evolution of National ITS Architecture for over 20 years, and initiated the CVRIA in 2012. Combining the two architectures into ARC-IT will streamline the vehicle to infrastructure communications guidelines as transportation use changes become more prevalent. Having a reliable framework can also streamline funding, leading to repeatable deployments.
