routing point (RP)

point used to reconstruct the location by route calculation
NOTE 1 to entry: RPs are intended to allow point-based matching to the map database of the end user. When such an RP match is found, the location then can be further reconstructed using the connectivity of the road network as represented in the map database of the end user. The routing point is one of the three defined core point…

service

a Service is a process running on a server computer that responds to requests of a particular type
NOTE: Some types of service may initiate requests in their own right. SIRI is made up of a number of different types of SIRI functional Service.

spatial location

location within three-dimensional space
NOTE 1 to entry: The “location” could be a point (consuming no space) or could consume space in one, two, or three dimensions. In any case, the location is identified within a larger space.
NOTE 2 to entry: Within ITS, locations are typically locations on or near the surface of the earth.
