Interface: Supply Chain Data Network - Cargo Monitoring Equipment

Supply Chain Data Network to Cargo Monitoring Equipment Interface Diagram

Architecture Flow Definitions

cargo data  (Proposed)  Applicable ITS Standards

Measures associated with the cargo inside a container, like temperature.

chassis data  (Proposed)  Applicable ITS Standards

Measures from chassis systems like brakes, tires, and fasteners.

container location  (Proposed)  

The location of a container, to sufficient accuracy to allow efficient container management.

container status  (Proposed)  

Measures from systems on-board the container, possibly including refrigeration, shock measurement, controlled atmosphere sensing and any other systems that support special needs of the cargo.

freight breach  (Proposed)  

Information about a breach or tamper event on Intermodal Freight Equipment which includes identity, type of breach, location, and time.

freight data request  (Proposed)  

Request for location of a freight shipment or for data from the sensing systems on-board the container. The request may require the requestor to authenticate their identity.

freight equipment information  (Proposed)  Applicable ITS Standards

Container, trailer, or chassis information regarding identity, type, location, brake wear data, mileage, seal #, seal type, door open/close status, chassis bare/covered status, tethered / untethered status, Bill of Lading, and sensor status.
