• Abstract:
  The U.S. Department of Transportation’s (USDOT) open-source traveler information message (TIM) Creator tool simplifies the creation of SAE International® J2735™ TIM messages that support connected and automated vehicle (CAV) applications. TIMs are used to communicate roadway and traveler information similar to the information from road signs or dynamic message sign units such as work zone, speed, or event notices. The tool provides a user-friendly, browser-based interface for defining message content, location, and timing parameters (figure 1). Users can create, edit, and validate messages, then export ASN.1 Unaligned Packed Encoding Rules (UPER)-encoded outputs for deployment through roadside units, traffic management systems, or other connected infrastructure tools such as Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) HubSM.
