  • Abstract:
    The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)

    has a responsibility to coordinate and promote projects that will bring the best information on weather to decision makers, in order to improve performance of the surface transportation system.

    To fulfill its responsibility, the FHWA’s Office of Transportation Operations (HOTO) Weather and Winter Mobility Program is documenting the weather information requirements of all road users and operators under this Surface Transportation Weather Decision Support Requirements (STWDSR) project. The STWDSR project is being conducted for the FHWA by Mitretek Systems, Inc.

    Developing requirements through the STWDSR project will support the Weather and Winter Mobility

    program by:

    1. Promoting deployment partnerships between users, private vendors and non-profit

    meteorological systems developers to realize advanced surface transportation weather decision

    support system concepts;

    2. Producing deployment guidance for local public/private development of the advanced system;

    3. Guiding further federal research projects and operational tests, and;

    4. Helping coordinate surface transportation weather requirements and projects across federal

    agencies, especially with the National Weather Service (NWS).

    The advanced system will be conceptualized within the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). The initial phase of this project has enumerated needs for weather information across all surface transportation decision makers. Requirements development will focus on winter road maintenance managers for a deliverable (the version 2.0 of this document) in June, 2000.
