TUA (Transport User Adaptation Layer)

The Transport User Adaptation Layer (TUA) is a specialized software component that allows different transportation systems to communicate smoothly. It acts as a translator or bridge, converting data and signals from one system into a format that another system can understand and use effectively. This ensures various transportation technologies—like trains, traffic management, and signaling—can work together seamlessly, improving safety, coordination, and efficiency. In essence, TUA helps different parts of a transportation network "speak" the same language, enabling smoother operation and better integration of complex transportation infrastructure.
