This Technical Specification defines a set of interoperable application profiles suitable to be used defining the
overall functionality of an interoperable EFC cluster using autonomous vehicle equipment. Doing so, it also
defines a way of defining further profiles for future use.
The profiles cover a wide range from simple toll road systems up to very complex tolling principles and tariff
rules. An EFC cluster shall select and use one of these profiles covering the needs of all participating Toll
Chargers.
The scope is limited to those base standards providing data elements or messages to be used specifically
when defining the data exchange for autonomous tolling principles. This covers ISO 17573 and the base
standards CEN ISO/TS 17575 parts 1 to 4, CEN ISO/TS 12813, CEN ISO/TS 13141 and those parts of
EN ISO 12855 specifying messages which are only relevant for autonomous systems.
Figure 3 provides a graphical illustration of the scope of this Interoperable Application Profile which is based
on the ISP concept according to ISO IEC/TR 10000-1.
