Tech Corner Tech Corner — Standards Part 1 of 3
Network Engineer, Capital Wireless Integrated Network

As part of CapWIN’s initiative
to make the system a National Model,
much importance has been given to
building the system with Standards in
mind. The next several Tech Corners
will focus on some of the standards for
the technology involved with the Cap-
WIN System.

IEEE 1512:
The Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineers (IEEE) Std. 1512
is comprised of a family of standards
anchored by the IEEE Std. 1512-2000,
Standard for Common Incident Management
Message Sets for Use by
Emergency Management Centers.
Other members of that family that are
either published or forthcoming include
three other companion volumes;

IEEE Std. 1512.1-2003 Traffic
Incident Management Message Sets for
Use by Emergency Management Centers.

IEEE Std. 1512.2-2003 Public
Safety Incident Management Message
Sets for Use by Emergency Management
Centers.

IEEE Std. 1512.3-2002 Hazardous
Material Incident Management
Message Sets for Use by Emergency
Management Centers.
Collectively, that family of
standards shall be referred to as the
“1512 Family of Standards.” The goal
of that family of standards is to support
efficient communication for the realtime,
interagency management of transportation-
related events and public
safety incidents that require transportation
coordination and support. Those
events include incidents, emergencies,
accidents, planned roadway closures,
special events and disasters caused by
humans or natural events. Those events
include any such event that impacts
transportation systems, or that causes a
report to be received by an emergency
management system, whether or not the
event actually affects a transportation
system, and whether or not a response
is required.
