Weather Information Processing and Distribution
Service GraphicDefinition:
This market package processes and distributes the environmental information collected from the Road Weather Data Collection market package. This market package uses the environmental data collected from RWIS to detect environmental hazards such as icy road conditions, high winds, dense fog, etc. so VDOT NOVA Maintenance and Construction Operations and VDOT TEOC and planned decision support systems can make decision on corrective actions to take. The continuing updates of road condition information and current temperatures can be used by system operators to more effectively deploy road maintenance resources, issue general traveler advisories, issue location specific warnings to drivers using the Traffic Information Dissemination market package, and aid operators in scheduling work activity.
