Iteris cloud based weather prediction
ClearPath Weather from 73 Iteris is the company’s next-generation road maintenance decision support system (MDSS).  The cloud-based software solution provides winter maintenance strategies for optimising personnel, equipment, and chemical purchases in addition to providing actionable pavement information for more effective government agency maintenance response.

The predictive software solution is based on Iteris’ proprietary algorithms and Highway Condition Analysis and Prediction System (HiCAPS) pavement weather model and leverages Iteris’ ClearPath Weather application programming interface with the power of big data and the experience of Iteris’ in-house staff of meteorologists and data scientists.

ClearPath Weather features an easy-to-use interface with state-of-the-art visualisation tools and mapping that can allow state and local agency maintenance managers to access real-time information such as looping radar, satellite imagery, weather forecasts, plough location, and route-specific weather and pavement conditions.
