    The results of an initial USDOT led analysis will be presented and 
feedback will be sought during this public workshop. The agenda will 
focus discussion on:
     Which interfaces have been identified as candidates for 
standardization;
     The process used for the identification and prioritization 
of these interfaces and associated information exchanges; and
     Results from the analysis which:
    [cir] Identify how standards that exist today may satisfy interface 
and exchange needs or may require some level of modification; and
    [cir] Identify standards gaps that exist.
    It is expected that results from this analysis will inform USDOT 
decision making regarding future support of specific standards 
activities. The project is sponsored and led by the USDOT's ITS JPO as 
part of the ITS Architecture and Standards Program and Systems 
Engineering and Test Bed Program efforts.
    Updates will be available on the ITS Program Web site at: http://www.its.dot.gov/ under Press Room: Public Meetings and Events, and on 
the ITS Standards Web site at: http://www.standards.its.dot.gov/DevelopmentActivities/CVReference.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As the results of the CVRIA, interface 
analysis, and standardization efforts are expected to affect a wide 
variety of public and private organizations, it is important that the 
analyses incorporate, as appropriate, the needs and requirements of the 
CV community. This workshop is an appropriate opportunity for external 
stakeholders to engage in the standards discussion.
