摘要: |
In the Hokuriku region of Japan snow accumulates to depths rarely seen anywhere in the world. This occurs because of the meteorological and topographical features unique to the region. In a region with such heavy snowfalls, snow removal is the major task carried out by road management during the winter. Because of the recent advances in information technology, it is now possible to use the internet or portable telephones to easily provide road users with road weather information such as the air temperature, wind speed, accumulated snow depth on roads that road managers accumulate for management use. Reports on the number of people with internet access show that information of these kinds will be accepted by road users as information with high utilization value. This paper introduces the future direction of the development of road management systems that can establish indices to support decisions concerning when to mobilize snow removal organizations and perform snow removal, and also to provide information seamlessly to road users. |
