structured collation of data elements suitable to be delivered to the onboard communication device for transmission to a land-based centre

NOTE It is emphasized that a probe message should not contain any information that identifies the particular vehicle from which it originated or any of the vehicle’s occupants, directly or indirectly. In delivering a probe message to be transmitted by the onboard communication device, the onboard data collection system will request that the message be packaged and transmitted without any vehicle or occupant identifying information.
