Calibration and Confidence in Snowplow Fleet Operations and Fleet Telematics

Abstract: The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) spends approximately $30 to $60 million a year on deicing salt and operates a fleet of 1,000 winter operations trucks distributed among 140 locations. The entire fleet is now instrumented with location telematics, and all new trucks have integrated dash cameras, salt spreader application rate and plow up/plow down integrated into the telematics link. When winter storms occur, they have varying regional impacts and INDOT monitors several data sources including Na… Show more

“…Agencies track salt stockpile inventory to manage the supply chain, monitor rock salt runoff into local environments, and, more recently, prepare for environmental reporting [23]. Integrating stockpile inventories along with other snowplow telematics provides a comprehensive view of salt distribution into the ecosystem to help mitigate the impacts and prevent overapplication [24,25]. Overapplication can leave salt residue on roadways, which can make it difficult for human and autonomous drivers to delineate pavement markings and the driving surface [26].…”
