METR Distribution Center --> METR Regulation System:
system-generated discrepancy report

Definitions

system-generated discrepancy report (Information Flow): METR Regulation Centers can learn of discrepancies from METR Distribution Centers or other regulation centers that identify conflicts during their rule verification processes. The system-generated discrepancy report identifies the specific elements of METR information that caused the verification error, including the METR information identifier and the specific issue that caused the problem.

METR Distribution Center (Source Physical Object): The 'METR Distribution Center' manages the collection and dissemination of rules received from one or more METR Regulation Centers and will verify that, holistically, the collective information is trustworthy for subsequent distribution to METR Users. It will accept and respond to requests for METR information from METR Consumer Systems using the provided request criteria.
The METR Distribution Center can be distinct from the METR Regulation Center because it will frequently need to collect rules from multiple METR Regulation Centers representing various rule-makers with different jurisdictional authority (e.g., traffic agency vs. environmental agency), in different areas (e.g., neighboring jurisdictional areas), and different levels of government (e.g., federal, state, and local). Likewise, there might be different METR Distribution Centers for different purposes (e.g., one that focuses on mainstream vehicles and another for commercial vehicles). The METR Distribution Center may register its availability as a service, and its associated cyber location information, with the Object Registration and Discovery System (ORDS).

METR Regulation System (Destination Physical Object): The 'METR Regulation System' creates and maintains electronic versions of traffic regulations for eventual consumption by traveler systems and other interested parties. Once approved, each rule is signed and traceable to a specific Rule-Maker. Depending on local policies and division of labor, the METR Regulation Center might need to coordinate with a METR Verification Center, a Maintenance and Construction Management System, and METR Discrepancy Handling Centers.

Interoperability Description
Regional Interoperability throughout the geopolitical region is highly desirable, but if implemented differently in different transportation management jurisdictions, significant benefits will still accrue in each jurisdiction. Regardless, this Information Flow Triple should be implemented consistently within a transportation jurisdiction (i.e., the scope of a regional architecture).
