Abstract:

The Clear Roads research consortium requested a tool to help transportation agencies more quickly and easily reconstruct winter weather events by drawing from data sources that cover the entire United States. The goals were to help agencies better understand the development and outcomes of hazardous weather events, react appropriately to them in the short and long term, and refine future maintenance decision-making. The tool would assist with after-action reviews and inform changes to practices at state, county and municipal levels of government. During Clear Roads Project 16-05, the research team designed and built a web-based tool that accesses multiple types of weather data in order for a user to reconstruct what happened during a weather event. This final report describes the steps taken to accomplish this objective. They include: identifying appropriate weather data and locating the best online sources, sketching a mock version of the web-based tool, and, upon Clear Roads approval of the design, building and testing the tool. A guidance document was produced and technical support was provided to the Clear Roads users for one year.
