Microweather’s platform offers us all the information we need to opt for the best strategies of winter management’s vehicles deployment against weather risk situations. Being able to predict variables such as the exact incident location or its severity, we are capable of maximizing the potential of our resources giving a quick and efficient answer on the roads. Besides, we pretend to obtain environmental advantages reducing the necessity of using chemical fluxes and avoiding unnecessary routes with the consequent reduction of carbon footprint.
The tool brings together different data sources in real time such as high-resolution weather forecast, weather stations data, radar data or vehicles position data generating weather alerts that helps to improve decisions and strategies of snow plough deployment and other resources assuring safety on the roads.
This tool is deployed currently in 2 contracts maintained by Acciona: British Columbia (Canada) region and A2 -Zaragoza’s Highway (Spain). In both locations it is offering really good outcome despite the complexity and differences between Canada and Spain. We highlight the flexibility and adaptability that Microweather has, it’s able to adapt to the necessities of each area giving reliable data anywhere.
