About ISO/TC204 Intelligent Transport Systems

Overview

Since our establishment in 1992, ISO's Technical Committee 204 (TC204) has developed and maintained a suite of standards and other artefacts for the Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) environment. The ITS environment interacts with many other domains and TC 204 coordinates with other ISO technical committees (e.g., TC 22) to ensure a proper division of work as defined by our scope.

To date, we have published over 360 documents that collectively describe broad swaths of the ITS domain. This work exists within a much broader operating context requiring collaboration with other developers of related standards, both within ISO (such as TC22 Road Vehicles and TC344 Innovative Logistics) and beyond (such as CEN/TC278 ITS Standards and ISO/IEC JTC 4 Smart and sustainable cities and communities). We currently have liaisons with approximately 40 other groups.

TC204 Committee Structure

TC204 executes its official work programme through a broad range of groups consisting of:

  • AHG - Ad-hoc Groups, which are short-lived groups to advise the TC regarding specific issues
  • AG - Advisory Groups, which are standing groups that advise the TC on long-term subjects
  • WG - Working Groups, which develop standards and other formal publications of TC 204
  • JWG - Joint Working Groups, which formally collaborate with experts outside of TC204 in their development of standards and other documents. JWGs are hosted by a specific TC, but generally have co-chairs from each participating TC.

Our structure is shown below together with our participating and observing members. All of TC204’s groups and convenors may be approached via the TC204 Secretariat.
