Using Real-Time Road Condition Measurements for Automated Winter Road MaintenanceStatus: CompleteReport Date: 09/05/2007 Summary: Researchers developed and tested a first-of-its-kind measurement system that, when mounted on snowplows, produces real-time measurements of the tire-road friction coefficient. These measurements are used to automatically adjust the application of deicing chemicals, which allows deicing materials to be used more efficiently and reduces environmental damage from chemical runoff.
