Example MDSS-Code 066623Compact high fog, locally icing drizzle black ice

MDSS-Code = 06662306 freezing rain66 freezing rain2 wind: 30-60kmh3 Temp. +/- 0C.MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 200612/19

MDSS - CodesMDSS - Codes are generated every hour for 3h, every 6h for 32h and every 12h for 72 hoursMDSS - Codes are generated for approximately 220 sections of road (1600 miles of highway)MDSS - Codes communication between road manager and the weather prognosticator are very efficient.10/19MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 2006

Actual TreatmentNo calibration is possible without the actual treatment.No treatment recommendation is possible without the actual treatment. Same result as MDSS-Colorado (Winter 2004 - 2005). Spreader - Data is necessaryMDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 200615/19

Calibration with MathematicianMathematician expertise helps calibrate the MDSS - System.This expertise provides that the MDSS - System works with a proven maximum effectiveness.This effectiveness must be accepted from the owner of the road network (e.g. 92%). The owner knows now under which conditions the MDSS - System cant be used (e.g. radar-shadow).MDSS - Stakeholder Meeting, Falls Church, VA, 11th August 200617/19
