Road Weather Data Collection
Service Graphic
Definition:The Road Weather Data Collection service collects current road and weather conditions using data collected from KDOT and Kansas Turnpike Authority environmental sensors deployed on and about the roadway (or guideway in the case of transit related rail systems). In addition to fixed sensor stations at the roadside, sensing of the roadway environment is planned from sensor systems located on KDOT, City of Wichita, Sedgwick County, and Suburban Maintenance and Construction Vehicles and on-board sensors provided by auto manufacturers. The collected environmental data is used by the Weather Information Processing and Distribution Service to process the information and make decisions on operations.
