The U.S. DOT ITS Standards Program recognizes that there may be other ITS standards surveys being conducted by other entities. If this is the case, please pardon any overlap; however, your input to these surveys will help the U.S. DOT ITS Standards Program better serve your needs and requirements. If no standards are used, skip to question --*-- .
- List of standards to consider when deploying -------*------- projects.
