     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     With advancements in vehicles, new or increased risks of personal injury, death, and property damage have presented. New protective mechanisms have been implemented to lessen the impacts of these risks, such as airbags, seatbelts, impact absorbing equipment, and many others which have been implemented on a variety of forms of transportation. Additionally, there have been a number of technologies designed to lessen the risk of an unintended occurrence, such as anti-lock braking systems, traffic collision avoidance systems, lane departure warning systems, dead man&#39;s switches, radar and laser systems, and other mechanisms to prevent the accident or impact from ever occurring. 
     The ability of a vehicle, whether on land, on water, under water, or above the ground, to automatically transmit and/or store its current location, its heading, its relative speed, and environmental data, as well as intended, unintended, anticipated, and/or predicted changes to its location, speed, and heading, combined with that vehicle&#39;s ability to receive the same from other nearby vehicles and services designed to process such information, will aid in giving notice to other vehicles allowing the appropriate actions, whether manual or automatic, to be taken based on that information. 
     To facilitate this, vehicles must understand how to communicate with other vehicles, transmitting, receiving, and storing such information in a manner that makes it understandable and actionable. 
     The value of this capability would be significant. This would provide a mechanism for vehicles to provide notice, in advance and/or in real time, of current, intended, unintended, anticipated, and predicted changes, and to receive the same from other vehicles, as well as storing said information. This could be used for a variety of purposes, not the least of which are collision avoidance, evasive actions, determination of traffic congestion, avoidance of obstacles, hazards, and challenging weather, and retrieval of historical information for event reconstruction, determination of actions, and an understanding of the factors at play in a particular situation, as well as to support the fully or partially autonomous operation of vehicles. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     This invention seeks to provide a framework for vehicles of various types, from various manufacturers, in various jurisdictions, having various capabilities, and serving various purposes, to create, transmit, store, receive, and process information about vehicle location, speed and heading, and environmental conditions, as well as intended, unintended, anticipated, and predicted changes to the vehicle&#39;s location, speed, and heading. This will provide the ability for a vehicle to record its own location, speed, heading information, and environmental conditions, as well as receive, store, and take actions based on information received from other vehicles about their location, speed, heading, and environmental conditions, along with intended, unintended, anticipated, and predicted changes to location, speed, and heading, as well as support the fully or partially autonomous operation of vehicles. 
     In short, this invention will provide a standard way for various vehicles to create, store and communicate motion and environmental information for its own use, the use of other vehicles, and others involved with the many aspects of handling vehicle travel, traffic, collision avoidance, and route determination, as well as support the fully or partially autonomous operation of vehicles. 
    
    
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     In order to allow for the creation, storage, transmission, and processing of information regarding the location, speed, heading, and environmental conditions of a vehicle, along with intended, unintended, anticipated, and predicted changes to location, speed, and heading, a standard for communication must be established, to let vehicles communicate directly or alternatively to allow them to interpret the data being transmitted from other vehicles, as well as allowing others involved with the many aspects of handling vehicle travel, traffic, collision avoidance, and route determination to properly utilize such information.

     CONCLUSION 
     The ability for vehicles of different types, from various manufacturers, with various capabilities, and serving various purposes to communicate with each other as well as with other services designed to receive, store, process and transmit this information, will provide significant potential for improved communication among vehicles, provide advanced notice of intended and unintended courses and changes to courses, provide notice of environmental considerations such as upcoming inclement weather or similar challenges, and provide additional information for the safe operation of various vehicles, whether operated by a human operator, operated autonomously, or a combination of both. The ability of vehicles to assemble, store, transmit, and receive information about the current, proposed, and indicated location, heading, speed, and other data available from other vehicles, will allow for improved decision making, whether by a human, in an automated fashion, or a combination of both. Providing and receiving this data will allow for better use of the paths of vehicles to avoid congestion, prevent collisions, avoid unsuitable or undesirable weather, and to better support future innovations in the operation of vehicles of all sorts. But to accomplish this, there must be a high speed and highly reliable method of communication, which is best accomplished by a standard for the handling of such information. 
     The standard for data elements contained herein will provide such a standard, allowing vehicles of all kinds, from many manufacturers, and meant for various areas of operations such as below the water, on the water, on the ground and above the ground, to all take advantage of the capabilities that will come from a robust method of the creation of data, the storage and transmission of that data, the processing of that data, and the ability to receive similar data from other vehicles and other services that will use this data. Although the description above contains many specificities, these should not be construed to limit the scope of the utility of this standard but as merely providing illustrations of some of several uses.
