Show moreOne of the goals of the Research and Innovative Technology Administration's IntelliDriveSM initiative is for the public and private organizations that collect, process, and generate weather products to utilize vehicle sensor data to improve weather and road condition products. It is likely that some users will not be able to contend with the complexities associated with vehicle data, such as data quality, representativeness, and format. A solution for addressing this issue is to utilize a Vehicle Data Translator (VDT) to preprocess weather-related vehicle data before they are distributed to data subscribers. This paper will describe the VDT and how vehicle data sets are being processed by the prototype VDT to generate derived weather and road condition information. Show less
