The state of Florida needs a Road Weather Information System (RWIS) that can provide timely and useful early warning weather information to travelers, transportation managers, law enforcement, and emergency managers in order to ensure safe transportation in both normal and evacuation conditions for residents, visitors, and commerce. The University of North Florida, in cooperation with the Florida State University and the National Weather Service, completed Phase II of a research program aimed at developing a RWIS Prototype Research Facility that allows Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) to evaluate the implementation of a RWIS model that utilizes the existing Motorist Aid System (MAS) microwave tower infrastructure for communications and weather sensor site locations.
