Proceedings for the Weather Information for Surface Transportation: Delivering Improved Safety and Efficiency for Tomorrow Symposium

Abstract:

The "Weather Information for Surface Transportation (WIST): Delivering Improved Safety and Efficiency for Tomorrow" symposium was held in 1999. The goal of the symposium was to provide a forum leading to the establishment of national needs and requirements for weather information associated with the decision-making actions involving surface transportation. The symposium was attended by a cross-section of transportation and weather professionals to establish national needs and requirements for weather information associated with decision-making actions involving surface transportation. This document summarizes the proceedings of the WIST symposium and captures the recommendations from the breakout sessions.
