摘要: Since 1998, the Federal Committee for Meteorological Services and Supporting Research (FCMSSR) has made weather services and research and development (R&D) activities supporting the surface transportation community a priority for the Federal meteorological community. In December 2002, the Office of the Federal Coordinator for Meteorological Services and Supporting Research (OFCM) published the comprehensive report, Weather Information for Surface Transportation - National Needs Assessment Report. This publication provides the first ever compilation and analysis of weather support needs across six surface transportation sectors: roadway, railway, transit, marine transportation, pipeline systems, and airport ground operations. The report also made a number of recommendations for future work regarding weather information for surface transportation (WIST) R&D needs. Both the Interdepartmental Committee for Meteorological Services and Supporting Research (ICMSSR) and the FCMSSR endorsed the recommendations to: identify gaps in coverage of WIST user needs; expand coordination among WIST R&D program managers and WIST providers; translate research results and new technologies into WIST applications; provide the fundamental knowledge to support future technology development and application; and expand WIST-related outreach and education.
