The Traffic Operation Coordination Center (TOCC) is a unit of the Beijing Municipal Commission of Transport, organised into four internal departments. The commission's published remit for it is citywide congestion monitoring, early warning and dispatch coordination across the capital's transport operators.

🎓 Lesson

Beijing's transport commission publishes what the centre is for and how it is organised, and no operating figure at all: how many vehicles it tracks, how many camera feeds it carries and how many datasets it holds are nowhere on its own record.

Claim 1 clm-006d0e4249d0158b descriptive
Traffic Operation Coordination Center (TOCC)
Published field
snippet · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this passport
What the mapping says
The transport commission's own organisational page is headed 北京市交通运行监测调度中心 and states the unit's short form as "简称:TOCC", confirming that a body called TOCC sits inside the Beijing Municipal Commission of Transport. The page also lists its four internal departments ("综合保障部、指挥调度部、运行监测部、科技应用部") and a direct telephone number, so it is describing an existing operating unit rather than a plan.
Caveat
The authority's own name for the unit translates as the Traffic Operation Monitoring and Dispatch Center. "Coordination Center" is a widely used English rendering of the same TOCC acronym, but it is not the translation the commission itself publishes.

Claim 2 clm-426e7d2805ae7c0e descriptive
citywide congestion monitoring
Published field
snippet · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this passport
What the mapping says
The first duty the commission lists for the unit is "承担本市交通运行状况的监测、预测和预警工作" — undertaking the monitoring, forecasting and early warning of traffic operating conditions for this municipality — which establishes a monitoring remit covering the whole city. The city government's English page adds the parent body's matching mandate: the commission is "responsible for organizing and coordinating the comprehensive traffic governance in Beijing Municipality".
Caveat
Both pages describe monitoring of traffic operating conditions across the municipality in general terms. Neither names congestion as the object of the monitoring, and neither says what is measured or how often.

Claim 3 clm-c0784beedeaa6765 descriptive
early warning
Published field
snippet · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this passport
What the mapping says
Early warning is named directly in the unit's first listed duty: "承担本市交通运行状况的监测、预测和预警工作", where 预警 is the standard Chinese administrative term for early warning and 预测 for forecasting. The commission therefore assigns the TOCC a forecasting and warning function, not only an observing one.
Caveat
No claim-specific caveat recorded

Claim 4 clm-c0339ad3cfec2d08 descriptive
dispatch coordination
Published field
snippet · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this passport
What the mapping says
Both halves of the phrase appear in the commission's duty list for the unit: "交通运行组织协调" (organisation and coordination of traffic operations) and "承担交通运行调度的事务性工作" (undertaking the administrative work of traffic operation dispatch). One of the unit's four internal departments is the 指挥调度部, the command and dispatch department.
Caveat
The page assigns the dispatch role but does not describe how it is exercised, over which operators, or whether the centre issues instructions itself rather than supporting the bodies that do.
