PhysicalQuantity
This element contains the measurement taken by the measurementSite. For completeness, the overarching structure is displayed below:
Elements
| Element | Type | Mandatory | Domain | Description | 
|---|---|---|---|---|
| forecast | Boolean | No | true, false | Indicates whether the value is a forecast | 
| measurementEquipmentTypeUsed | MultilingualString | Yes, if value differs from the associated measurementSite | See explanation | Reference to the equipment type in prescribed terms | 
| basicData | BasicData | Yes | N/A | Container element for the specialization into measured values | 
Attributes
| Attribute | Type | Mandatory | Domain | Description | 
|---|---|---|---|---|
| xsi:type | String | Yes | SinglePhysicalQuantity | Fixed value specifying the instantiated class | 
Sub-element measurementEquipmentTypeUsed
This element specifies the type of equipment the measurement site is equipped with.
| Domain Value | Explanation | 
|---|---|
| anpr | License plate recognition | 
| bluetooth | Bluetooth device passages | 
| fcd | Floating car data | 
| infrared | Infrared detection | 
| laser | Laser detection | 
| loop | Loop detection in the road surface |

| hose | Detection or counting with hose sensors | 
| video | Video detection (excluding license plate recognition) | 
| vri | Traffic light control system | 
| data fusion | Combination of data collection techniques, where data is fused | 
| other | Any other form of detection or combination of techniques | 
Sub-element basicData
The basicData element is specialized with the xsi:type attribute to specify the data type (intensity, speed, travel time).
| Attribute | Type | Mandatory | Domain | Description | 
|---|---|---|---|---|
| xsi:type | String | Yes | TrafficFlow, TrafficSpeed, TravelTimeData | Definition of the applicable specification | 
Within the basicData element, a derived DataValue element is included. The structure of DataValue is as follows:
