Specifies the context for application interface profiles for the exchange of land transport data using current technologies and existing standards for item identification, package identification, container identification, and international standards and practices regarding freight and its movement.

This part of ISO26683 provides the context for application interface profiles for the exchange of land transport data using current technologies and existing standards for item identification, package identification, container identification, and international standards and practices regarding freight and its movement. This part of ISO26683 provides: a context of the relationship between the ISO26683 series and other freight and fleet standards and defines the objectives for the ISO26683 series. The explanation is provided as to how existing International Standards and Technical Specifications can be utilized to agglomerate/aggregate data concepts by using standardised application interface profiles within the context of ISO26683 and how ISO26683 can be used to provide information/data to cargo management systems. descriptions of use cases of providing information to cargo tracking and tracing in end-to-end transport by exploiting identifiers, data carriers, EDI messages and data elements with respect to various types of cargo and transport means within an international intermodal/multimodal cargo movement context. an architecture for the collation and transfer of data agglomerated/aggregated from information contained in the transport load to transport operating systems, with the objective being to enable efficient handling of truck/trailer identification and on-board cargo information for tracking, tracing and cargo monitoring purposes in a land cargo transport situation. NOTE ISO26683 is designed to present information on end-to-end cargo application systems; it does not provide end to end (consignor to consignee) system design. This part of ISO26683 is the first part of a multi-part series which provides context, high level architecture and a list of referenced standards used for all parts of the ISO26683 series of deliverables.
