What is ISO 17572-4 about?
ISO 17572-4 describes and lists the characteristics of the Precise Relative Location Referencing Method (PRLRM) which describes precise relative locations in the context of geographic databases and is used to locate transport-related objects in an encoder system as well as in the decoder side.
ISO 17572-4 specifies PRLRM, comprising:
- Conceptual data model for Location Referencing Methods
- Specification of location referencing for precise relative information
- Use cases for Precise Relative Location References
- Use cases for elements of Precise Relative Location References
- Implementation of Precise Relative Location References
Who is ISO 17572-4 for?
ISO 17572-4 on Location referencing for geographic databases is useful for:
- Traffic authorities
- Transportation authorities
- Railways
- Shipping companies
- Logistic management
Why should you use ISO 17572-4?
ISO 17572-4 defines methods that enable exchange location information of the object to be referenced in the lane or the lane junction.
The methods to be defined in ISO 17572-4 are being adopted for precise relative location references which allow for location referencing.
ISO 17572-4 describes use cases for precise relative location references and use cases for elements of precise relative location references.
