144 Vaisala, a leader in the measurement and decision support of a vast variety of weather technologies, will use its position as a leader in road weather ITS sensors, decision support tools, and consultation, to highlight not just equipment but software systems. As the company points out, managing decisions around road weather is as important as the sensors and systems, and can be easier with Vaisala RoadDSS Manager software. Manager helps with reporting, communication, and simplifies the information needed to make a decision.

Vaisala stresses that its focus in new solutions is on long-term costs not short-term gains. For instance, the Vaisala nonintrusive pavement sensors are an excellent example of developing a solution that is accurate, and has a better life cycle cost than traditional in-pavement sensors. And visitors to Intertraffic will hear about other new products in the pipeline for release that will make serving and maintaining the roadside equipment much easier, which means lower costs over the lifetime of a purchase.
