Weather contributed to 23 percent of all non-reoccurring delay and approximately 544 million vehicle hours of delay each year (2014). Nearly 2.3 billion dollars each year are spent by transportation agencies for winter maintenance that contribute to close to 20 percent of most DOT’s yearly budgets (2014). These safety and mobility factors make it important to develop new and more effective methods to address road conditions during adverse weather conditions. Given weather and traffic sensors installed along side of the highway networks, how can we automatically detect weather and traffic change events and prevent from the traffic delay or harsh weather accidents? To this end, we propose a novel framework to address this problem. This paper develops techniques for efficiently detecting rapid weather change events and analyzing their impacts on the traffic flow characteristics of a highway network. It is composed of three components, including 1) detection of rapid weather change events in a highway network using the streaming weather information from a sensor network of weather stations; 2) detection of rapid traffic change events on the traffic flow characteristics (e.g., travel time) of the highway network; and 3) analysis of correlations between the detected weather and traffic change events in space and time. The proposed approach was applied to a weather dataset provided by New York State Mesonet and a traffic flow dataset the National Performance Management Research Data Set (NPMRDS) provided by NYSDOT. The empirical results provide potential evidence about the significant impacts of rapid weather change events on traffic flow characteristics of the Interstate 90 (I-90) Highway in the state of New York. We show the quantitative performance evaluation of our change event detection algorithm and three baseline methods on manually labeled the weather dataset and our method outperforms baselines in terms of precision, recall and F-score. We present the analysis of Top K detected change events as case studies and also provide the spatio-temporal correlation statistics of top k weather and traffic change events. The limitations of the proposed approach and the empirical study are also discussed.

This article aims to improve operational radar rainfall estimates in complex terrain by incorporating auxiliary remote sensing observations. An innovative vertical profile of reflectivity (VPR) correction scheme is developed for operational radar using observations from multiple vertically pointing profilers to represent the vertical structure of precipitation at various locations. A demonstration study in the Russian River basin in Northern California is detailed. Results show that the QPE performance is significantly improved after VPR correction, and this new VPR correction approach is superior to the conventional approach currently applied in the operational radar rainfall system. The normalized standard error of hourly rainfall estimates for the two precipitation events presented in this article is improved by ~20% after applying the proposed VPR correction scheme.

We used external data provided by atmospheric weather models (e.g., ERA-Interim reanalysis) to constrain the initial state and by Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) to phase ambiguities elimination introduced by phase unwrapping algorithm. An iterative least-square is then used to solve the optimization problem. We applied the presented methodology to two time series of differential PWV maps estimated from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images acquired by the Sentinel-1A, over the southwest part of the Appalachian Mountains (USA). The results were validated using an independent GNSS data set and also compared with atmospheric weather prediction data. The GNSS PWV observations show a strong correlation with the estimated PWV maps with a root-mean-square error less than 1 mm. These results are very encouraging, particularly for the meteorology community, providing crucial information to assimilate into numerical weather models and potentially improve the forecasts.

High-resolution models of tropospheric delays and refractivity based on GNSS and numerical weather prediction data for alpine regions in Switzerland / Karina Wilgan in Journal of geodesy, vol 93 n°6 (June 2019)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 93 n°6 (June 2019) . - pp 819 - 835 Titre : High-resolution models of tropospheric delays and refractivity based on GNSS and numerical weather prediction data for alpine regions in Switzerland Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Karina Wilgan, Auteur ; Alain Geiger, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : pp 819 - 835 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes descripteurs IGN] Alpes [Termes descripteurs IGN] collocation par moindres carrés [Termes descripteurs IGN] correction troposphérique [Termes descripteurs IGN] données GNSS [Termes descripteurs IGN] données météorologiques [Termes descripteurs IGN] interféromètrie par radar à antenne synthétique [Termes descripteurs IGN] modèle mathématique [Termes descripteurs IGN] précision de l'estimation [Termes descripteurs IGN] prévision météorologique [Termes descripteurs IGN] réfraction [Termes descripteurs IGN] retard troposphérique [Termes descripteurs IGN] retard troposphérique zénithal [Termes descripteurs IGN] Suisse Résumé : (auteur) The tropospheric delay of a microwave signal affects all space geodetic techniques. One possibility of modeling the delay is by introducing tropospheric models from external data sources. In this study, we present high-resolution models of tropospheric total refractivity and zenith total delay (ZTD) for the alpine area in Switzerland. The troposphere models are based on different combinations of data sources, including numerical weather prediction (NWP) model COSMO-1 with high spatial resolution of 1.1 km × 1.1 km, GNSS data from permanent geodetic stations and GPS L1-only data from low-cost permanent stations. The tropospheric parameters are interpolated to the arbitrary locations by the least-squares collocation method using the in-house developed software package COMEDIE (Collocation of Meteorological Data for Interpretation and Estimation of Tropospheric Pathdelays). The first goal of this study is to validate the obtained models with the reference radiosonde and GNSS data to show the improvement w.r.t. the previous studies that used lower resolution input data. In case of total refractivity, the profiles reconstructed from COSMO-1 model show the best agreement with the reference radiosonde measurements, with an average bias of 1.1 ppm (0.6% of the total refractivity value along a vertical profile) and standard deviation of 2.6 ppm (1.6%) averaged from the whole profile. The radiosondes are assimilated into COSMO-1 model; thus, a high correlation is expected, and this comparison is not independent. In case of ZTD, the GNSS-based model shows the highest agreement with the reference GNSS data, with an average bias of 0.2 mm (0.01%) and standard deviation of 4.3 mm (0.2%). For COSMO-based model, the agreement is also very high, especially compared to our previous studies with lower resolution NWPs. The average bias is equal to − 2.5 mm (0.1%) with standard deviation of 9.2 mm (0.5%). The second goal of this study is to test the feasibility of calculating high-resolution troposphere models over a limited area from coarser data sets. We calculate the ZTD models with spatial resolution of 20 m for a test area in Matter Valley. We include the information from the low-cost GPS stations (X-Sense), to also assess the performance and future usability of such stations. We validate the models based on three data sources w.r.t. the reference GNSS data. For the station located inside the area of the study, the models have an agreement of few mm with the reference data. For stations located further away from the study area, the agreement for X-Sense is smaller, but the standard deviations of residuals are still below 15 mm. We consider also another factor of evaluating the high-resolution models, i.e., spatial variability of the data. For designing a GNSS network, also for the tropospheric estimates, the height variability of the network may be as important as the horizontal distribution. The GNSS-based models are built from the coarsest network; thus, their variability is the lowest. The variability of X-Sense-based stations is the highest; thus, such data may be suitable for building troposphere models for very high-resolution applications.
