Enhancing Current Snow & Ice Training Practices by Incorporating the Use of a Customized Snow and Ice Simulator

项目名称：	Enhancing Current Snow & Ice Training Practices by Incorporating the Use of a Customized Snow and Ice Simulator
摘要：	Winter maintenance operations are the Ohio Department of Transportation's (ODOT) premier service. ODOT strives to set a standard of excellence through comprehensive planning that includes equipment readiness, truck routing, material inventory control and training. Over the past few years, staffing at government agencies has been decreasing. As this trend continues ODOT is experiencing a loss of seasoned full-time drivers who have made the "snow warriors" of the past. Much of the replacement are auxiliary and seasonal drivers with little training. The intent of this project is to develop customized simulation that can mimic truck operations, actual Ohio roads, and influences from snow and ice on both the truck and the plow. This will allow drivers to hone their skills before taking a plow onto a busy Ohio highway/interstate during a snow event. This research is needed to complete the development of a customized simulator training program.
