• Abstract:
  Connected vehicle applications related to road weather management and enabling systems are being designed to collect and take advantage of connected vehicle data and information transmissions to increase situational awareness, improve roadway levels of service, and optimize use of resources and materials. The use of these applications and systems are intended to inform decisions as well as increase the ability to respond quickly and appropriately to adverse weather and roadway surface conditions in order to reduce or eliminate weather-related crashes and delays. Applications will support advisories, warnings, and vehicle and/or infrastructure controls. This document includes a brief description of the connected vehicle road weather management applications and enabling systems in development or in practice. In addition, the Connected Vehicle Reference Implementation Architecture website (http://www.iteris.com/cvria/html/applications/applications.html) provides more information about these and other applications. Some applications and enabling systems (e.g., the Vehicle Data Translator) are available via the Open Source Application Development Portal (http://www.itsforge.net).
