Models and Algorithms for Intelligent Winter Road Maintenance and Traveler Information Systems
Models and Algorithms for Intelligent Winter Road Maintenance and Traveler Information Systems
Project Overview:
Monitoring of winter road surface conditions during and after a snow storm is essential for most transportation agencies in Canada who are responsible for winter road maintenance. The goal of this program is to address some of the fundamental issues arising in winter road maintenance, such as, relationship between safety and mobility of highways and various storm, road, and maintenance factors, spatial and temporal variation of road surface conditions, and planning and scheduling of snow and ice control operations.
