Connected Vehicle Applications and Supporting Documentation
Road Weather
Application Description
- Motorist Advisories and Warnings (MAW)
- An application that will use road-weather data from connected vehicles to provide information to travelers on deteriorating road and weather conditions on specific roadway segments
- Enhanced MDSS
- An application that will acquire road-weather data from connected and other general public vehicles to recommend treatment plans and weather response plans to snow plow operators, and drivers of maintenance vehicles
- Vehicle Data Translator (VDT)
- An complementary application that, when installed on road service vehicles such as snowplows, collects road and atmospheric conditions data and transmits them to other portions of the road weather management network
- Weather Response Traffic Information (WxTINFO)
- An application that will use connected vehicle data and communications systems to enhance the operation of variable speed limit systems and improve work zone safety during severe weather events
