  1. Realization andConcept of theMDSS ASFiNAGup-to-date 25th July 2006 Albert Mathis, Dipl. Ing FH, Executive MBA, AnyData AG, Switzerland albert.mathis@anydata.ch 1/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  2. Topics of this presentation Realization • MDSS - ASFiNAG • MDSS - Code • MDSS - Code format • Probability of forecast precipitation • Probability of forecast snowfall/snow cover • Actual Treatment • Treatment recommendations • Calibration with Mathematician • Concept was proposed for the State of Ohio Input Concept Output Expertise 2/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  3. MDSS – Austria Realisation 3/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  4. MDSS - Components Meteorological office Mobile data acquisition Weather forecast (incl. MDSS-Codes) Maintenance vehicle data Road weather information systems (RWIS) MDSS Maintenance decision support informations Measured road data 4/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  5. Location 1 Location 2 MDSS - System • Full system redundancy in two locations • High availability (99.8%) • 700 RWIS, • Viasala, Luft, Micks, Boschung • 150 users, • 1,600 miles of highway 5/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  6. MDSS – Sofware Modules Nowcasting / Forecasting Treatment recommendation Data acquisition Alarming Platform Data display / reporting Configuration 6/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  7. MDSS – User interface Main display • Secured log-in • Map based display • RWIS + Road weather segments • Danger level for upcoming hours • Time cursor 7/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  8. MDSS – User interface Other displays • History graph : • Measured data • Precipitation • Alarms • Status • Forecast accuracy • Comparision forecast / measurement 8/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  9. MDSS – User interface Other displays • Country summary • Still pictures • Satellite / radar pictures 9/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  10. MDSS - Code format • XXYYzZ • XX Change on the road surface • YY Weather, Precipitation • z Wind • Z Temperature characteristics 11/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  11. Example MDSS-Code 066623 • Compact high fog, locally icing drizzle • black ice • MDSS-Code = 066623 • 06 freezingrain • 66 freezing rain • 2 wind: 30-60kmh • 3 Temp. +/- 0°C. 12/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  12. MDSS - Codes • MDSS - Codes are generated every hour for 3h, every 6h for 32h and every 12h for 72 hours • MDSS - Codes are generated for approximately 220 sections of road (1’600 miles of highway) • MDSS - Codes communication between road manager and the weather prognosticator are very efficient. 10/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  13. . Probability forecast for precipitation Probability 100% 0% 13/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  14. Probability forecast for snowfall/snow cover (today and future) 14/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  15. Actual Treatment • No calibration is possible without the actual treatment. • No treatment recommendation is possible without the actual treatment. Same result as MDSS-Colorado (Winter 2004 - 2005). • Spreader - Data is necessary 15/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  16. Treatment recommendations 16/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  17. Calibration with Mathematician • Mathematician expertise helps calibrate the MDSS - System. • This expertise provides that the MDSS - System works with a proven maximum effectiveness. • This effectiveness must be accepted from the owner of the road network (e.g. 92%). The owner knows now under which conditions the MDSS - System can’t be used (e.g. radar-shadow). 17/19 MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

  18. Concept was proposed for the State of Ohio Evaluation of ODOT Roadway / Weather Sensor Systems for Snow and Ice Removal Operations, Final Report June 2003 Helmut T.
