ClearPath Weather® for
City / County / Municipalities

ClearPath Weather®, a component of the DTN ClearPath family of traffic and weather solutions, is a winter road information service that provides decision makers with an easy-to-use display for effectively managing winter weather road issues before, during, and after weather events. With a single click of the mouse, maintenance managers are able to view real-time information they need such as looping radar, satellite imagery, and site-specific weather and pavement conditions.

Each forecast contains the ideal maintenance action given the current and forecasted weather conditions, an intuitive graphical interface for displaying your information, and a specialized pavement forecast generated by DTN' Highway Condition Analysis and Prediction System (HiCAPS™) pavement weather forecasting model.

For efficient use of manpower and resources, knowing when and where to plow or apply treatment chemicals requires timely and accurate information.

  • Pavement/Bridge temperature
  • Pavement/Bridge condition
  • Pavement/Bridge frost risk (%)
  • Route-specific treatment recommendations
