摘要: Removal of snow and ice on Wayne County roads is done by snowplow trucks that are given a route and are then unsupervised for the duration of the time they are working on the assigned route. Since there may be over 100 snowplow trucks working separate routes, it is very hard for a dispatching supervisor to have a clear idea how the road clearing operations is progressing since each and every storm presents different conditions to the driver of the plow. The purpose of the program is to evaluate the performance and utility of using automatic vehicle location, wireless communication technologies and geographic information systems as applied to snow and ice removal operations. The end result was to put a map display showing route status in different colors on a terminal in front of the dispatcher.
