Creation of a Rapidly-Updating Road Weather Impacts Prediction System (RWIPS)

This proposal lays the framework for an end-to-end decision-support capability for the Missouri Department of Transportation (MODOT) that provides potentially impactful weather information coupled with a routing decision tool to aid in effective response to road weather hazards. The project is a multi-stage one that will leverage expertise within NOAA and OU/CIWRO for real-time weather monitoring and forecasting and then expand upon capabilities developed and demonstrated by Missouri University Science and Technology.
