Description

 

Weather in rural areas can present a major safety issue for travelers but getting drivers the information they need in a timely fashion can be challenging. This presentation shows how the North Dakota DOT leveraged its existing roadside signs, software, and freely available National Weather service data to get the maximum value from its investments. The resulting system communicates both area-wide weather warnings and localized information based on roadside sensor data on roadside signs without deploying any new hardware or communications systems.
