Overview
Vaisala Road Weather Navigator
WID721 is a unique user interface
designed to give RWIS (Road/Runway
Weather Information System) users
more control over how their data
is viewed, which allows for quick
analysis and decision-making during
weather events. RWIS collects vital
information from pavement, weather
and trafc sensors, and viewing your
RWIS data is just as important as
the system collecting it. With Vaisala
Navigator RWIS data is displayed in a
simple, user-friendly manner, which
makes it easy to learn and navigate.
Navigator provides an unparalleled
level of user customization, allowing
you to personalize map views, data
sets, user groups, etc. and create
warning notications based on your
pre-dened parameters.
Viewing RWIS data quickly and easily
enables maintenance and operations
personnel to monitor changing
weather conditions in real time and
make informed and timely decisions.
Two options are available for Vaisala
Navigator. A hosted version where
Vaisala gathers data from the RWIS
sites directly and users can access
anywhere they have internet access.
A second version the customer
hosts the data and manages the data
collection equipment.
