11
The term RWIS has a number of diverse definitions ranging from sensing and processing devices in the field to a composite of all weather and pavement information resources available to highway operations and maintenance personnel.
For our purposes, RWIS can be defined as the hardware, software programs, and communications interfaces necessary to collect and transfer field observations to a display device at the user’s location.
While the original purpose of the RWIS was to address winter weather conditions, applications have been developed to detect and monitor a variety of road weather conditions impacting road operations and maintenance.
Definition: Road Weather Information System (RWIS) and its associated Environmental Sensor Stations (ESS) .
12
An ESS consists of one or more sensors measuring atmospheric, pavement, soil, and/or water level conditions.
13
Examples of ESS Sensors
14
As the graphic above illustrates, the RWIS collects, transmits, processes, and
disseminates weather and road condition information.
The RWIS may consist of several meteorological and pavement condition
monitoring stations strategically located near a highway that help
transportation managers make more informed operational decisions.
Specialized equipment and computer programs monitor weather and
pavement condition elements that help users observe how adverse
weather is currently affecting the highways and assess future impacts.
For example, winter road maintenance managers may benefit from such a system during
winter storms by making optimal use of materials and staff, selecting appropriate treatment
strategies, utilizing anti-icing techniques, and properly timing maintenance activities. Traffic
managers may use road weather observations to modify traffic signal timing, reduce speed
limits, and close hazardous roads and bridges.

Environmental Sensor Station (ESS) Operational Applications
ESS data provides many benefits, in addition to improving road safety, mobility, and productivity, by supplying information on roadway conditions essential for traffic operations, traveler information, road maintenance, and emergency response.
18
Benefits derived from theseapplications include:• Weather service providers for surface
transportation customers use ESS data to develop tailored road weather products (e.g., pavement temperature forecasts).
• National Weather Service (NWS), military (public) and private weather service providers use these data to develop weather products, short-range forecasts, and forecast verification, and as input to locally run weather forecast models.
• State climatologists can use ESS data for long-term records and climatological analyses.
• Local, state, or Federal disaster assessment and response agencies (e.g., Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Department of Homeland Security) may use these data to manage emergencies and related response actions.
19
• Insurance companies can use these data to help determine risks of potential impacts from future weather events.
• Forensic meteorologists can use ESS data to better understand and reconstruct roadway crashes.
• RWIS ESS data can also be leveraged to support rail, pipeline, and marine operations when such operations are adjacent to or reasonably near the ESS.
• Government and university Mesonets can include these data to support the development of weather and road weather forecast models.
Benefits derived from theseapplications include:
20
In meteorology, a mesonet is a regional network of automated observing surface weather stations designed to observe mesoscale (intermediate size) meteorological phenomena (weather features and their associated processes).
Due to the space and time scales associated with mesoscale phenomena, weather stations comprising a mesonet will be spaced closer together and report more frequently. The term mesonet refers to the collective group of these weather stations, and are typically owned and operated by a common entity.
What is a Mesonet?
21
Mesoscale phenomena can cause weather conditions in a localized area to be significantly different from that dictated by the ambient large-scale condition. As such, meteorologists need to understand these phenomena in order to improve forecast skill. Observations are critical to understanding the processes by which these phenomena form, evolve, and dissipate.
The long-term observing networks (RWIS, ASOS, AWOS), however, are too sparse and report too infrequently for mesoscale research. RWIS, ASOS and AWOS stations are typically spaced 40 to 100 miles apart. "Mesoscale" weather phenomena occur on a spatial scale of hundreds of miles. Thus, an observing network with finer temporal and spatial scales is needed for mesoscale applications. This need led to the development of the mesonet.
Why Mesonets?
22
Mesoscale phenomena can cause weather conditions in a localized area to be significantly different from that dictated by the ambient large-scale condition.
23
Maximizing Benefits…
To maximize these benefits, an attempt should be made during the planning process for siting RWIS ESSs to contact other organizations involved in similar data collection that may help both local transportation agencies and other customers (e.g., NWS; FAA; local TV stations; universities and high schools; and, other city, county, and state agencies).
Refer to the Siting Guidelines: in there, it discusses the potential for establishing information partnerships and/or leveraging the data collected by other organizations. The Siting Checklist provides a reminder to the siting team to consider information partnerships during the siting process. 24
The planning team should also include local DOT personnel, especially maintenance personnel. These individuals typically possess a vast knowledge of weather conditions along the road segment they maintain. The maintenance personnel can provide critical input about recurring weather problems such as the locations of frequent slippery pavements, low visibilities, or strong gusty winds that suggest the need for an ESSinstallation.
Additionally, local DOT personnel can often identify areas where an ESS sensor might be vulnerable to large snow drifts, flooding, or pooling water from spring thaws.
Diverse Planning Team:
25
Considerations to include:How will the road weather information be used? For example, will the information be used to monitor roadway conditions as input to winter maintenance decisions or road temperature modeling, or to support weather-responsive traffic management, traveler information systems (e.g., 511 systems) or road construction efforts?
Will the ESS be used to measure a site-specific condition or to provide information that may represent conditions across a general area? For example, installing a sensor to monitor the visibility along a fog-prone road segment may result in completely different siting decisions than if the requirement is to collect wind and temperature information for input to a road weather model..
Planning the ESS network should include an analysis of the operational requirements for road weather information. This analysis will drive the environmental sensor requirements and lead to decisions regarding sensor selection and siting.
An analysis of the operational requirements
26
System designers should keep in mind that several different sensors may be needed in combination to satisfy observing requirements.
For example, if a pavement sensor is to be included in an installation, the DOT may also want to install air temperature, humidity, and precipitation sensors to complement the pavement sensor data.
The precipitation sensor can help identify whether pavement sensor readings are indicative of new or continuing precipitation, while the temperature and humidity sensors will indicate whether conditions support the formation of frost.
DOTs may want to create a prioritized list of the road weather elements and sites they need to fulfill their requirements. Such an approach may help in making tradeoffs when data collection needs exceed available funding or when a phased approach to meeting statewide requirements is desired.
DOTs should also consider other sources of weather and pavement data that may be available to meet road weather information requirements. Developing data-sharing partnerships with other agencies may help satisfy RWIS ESS installation requirements while improving the availability of data to all partners.
What needs to be measured at each installation?

RWIS/ESS Siting Guidelines
The Federal Highway Administration, the Aurora RWIS Pooled Fund Program, and the AASHTO Snow and Ice Cooperative Program partnered to produce this RWIS ESS Siting Guidelines.
32
Criteria is based on an analysis of other published research & interviews with state DOT experts, equipment suppliers & consultants
Guidelines are a set of recommend-ations & are not mandates or standards
Purpose of the Guide• Encourage uniform siting criteria
• Maximize investments in ESS
• Provide instructions for how to select sensors for an ESS
• Provide insight for the selection of appropriate locations for sensor
placement
• Improve integration of road weather data with other meteorological data sets
• Encourage compiling & maintaining metadata
33
Implementation and Evaluation in developing Version 2
• Evaluated the use & effectiveness of Version 1.0
• Update with new technology & metadata information
• Three State DOT’s were interviewed for their evaluation of the Guidelines:– Michigan DOT– Idaho Transportation Department– New Hampshire DOT
34
Siting Metadata• Metadata: “data about data”
• Metadata are used to document the characteristics of each sensor and its siting to provide users an understanding of what the sensor data really represent
• Standards have been developed for some geospatial metadata, but not for RWIS ESS location and sensor metadata 35
Version 2.0 Updates Discussion of bridge anti-icing systems
Added a section on “How to use this guide”
Updated information on ESS maintenance
Information about the Clarus Initiative
Included a discussion on archaeological constraints, soil conditions & clear zones
Included a reference to the Storm water Guide for storm water management ESS sites
36
• Thermal mapping– Better defines thermal characteristics– Help identify similar areas– Optimize the number of ESS to be
installed
• Portable sensor systems help identify:– potential permanent ESS sites– the use of non-intrusive sensors (not
requiring implanting in/below pavement)
Additional Siting Tools
37
Conclusion
Collection of road weather information can provide decision support to transportation managers & contribute to more accurate road weather forecasts.
Siting recommendations are designed to satisfy as many road weather monitoring, detecting and predicting requirements as possible.
Siting decisions are best made by a team of transportation operations, road maintenance, and weather experts.
Siting recommendations encourage uniformity in siting, application and participation in the greater community.
