MCV Environmental Monitoring

On-board systems that collect environmental and road condition data (including road surface or air temperature, wind speed, and road traction information - spatially located and time stamped) from sensors on-board the maintenance vehicle or located at the roadway.

  1. The maintenance and construction vehicle shall collect environmental data from on-board sensors, including air temperature, wind speed, surface temperature, traction conditions, etc.
  2. The maintenance and construction vehicle shall transmit environmental sensor data to the center. The sensor data includes location and timestamp information.
  3. The maintenance and construction vehicle shall provide environmental sensor equipment operational status to the center.
  4. The maintenance and construction vehicle shall provide environmental sensor equipment fault indication to the center for repair.
  5. The maintenance and construction vehicle shall collect environmental data from sensors located at the roadway but are monitored on-board a maintenance and construction vehicle.
  6. The maintenance and construction vehicle shall transmit environmental sensor data to fixed sensors located along the roadside. The sensor data includes location and timestamp information.
