  • Prioritized Topics:
    • Proposal on new domain structure built on Cargo variations. 
      • Wally: No formal standardization today. Tire as location reference. Three levels, 6 "doors", compartments. Fleets interested to discuss this. TMC f2f mid Sept. We should try to come up with proposals.

      • Data recorder/Driver data
        • Tech stack example for driver recorder use case. HIM config tree added after the meeting. Ulf to explain in next meeting.
        • Truck/Driver trees contain metadata for the represented signals, actual (transient) data is in the state storage data buffer. Driver recorder unit may contain data from multiple drivers. How represent these multiple "driver instances" in the data model?
        • Driver recorder specific data (type, version, time-to-calibration, etc) should be represented in the Truck tree.
    • HIM configurator demo. Moved to next meeting.

  • Compliance statement
  • Welcome and agenda discussion - anything that needs to be added?
  • Prioritized Topics:
    • CVIS issues
      • Driver data - follows the driver as he goes between assets. Hours driving, time of break, driver settings,
        • Europe - driver has physical card, as above, speed...
      • Diagnostics data - OBD CARB biased term; fleet like actionable info as well as raw data; DTC plus location code important
    • Continue tree definition discussion.
      • Heavy duty Europe X tons? Class 1: < 3.5 ton, Class 2: 3.5-12 tons, Class 3 > 12 tons
        • Should Light trucks be separate tree?  One tree for all classes is likely => Do not use Heavy duty in naming.
      • Create a Bus tree as the signal set etc are quite different.
    • allowed definitions now in the common objects folder. himConfigurator can be used to substitute references to external Datatype tree with actual definitions.
    • HIM configurator demo.

  • Prioritized Topics:
    • Present the initial documentation at https://covesa.github.io/commercial-vehicle-information-specifications/
    • Discuss documentation layout.
      • Ted: looking to jumpstart the signaling work, leverage other existing work (eg FMS J1939 already mapped to VSS by Bosch) 
        Wally: centerline approach is a better way. fleet doesn't think centerline - how to represent
        ... VRMS uses driver side, front, back etc instead of centerline
        ... body type
        ... data in cargo area growing extensively
        Ted: on history of node location - which is driver side, etc. I like the center line but we also need a representation humans are more likely to use - we can potentially support more than one path 
    • Discuss 'first level' of branches for the respective trees (Tractor/Trailer).
      • Driver branch o separate tree? 
        • AP:Put tgether info about this for next meeting.
      • Sergey: Standards for where package is stored?
        • TMC can help?
      • Rename Tractor to Truck. Wait until checked.
