While driving, particulate matter from the road will enter the vehicle and pollute the air inside, which will be harmful to the health of passengers. ...
To keep pace with the dynamic development of its economy and society, Serbia is modernizing its ageing road network. By providing 54 road weather monitoring stations across the whole country, OTT HydroMet plays a key role in this huge initiative. The State Road A1 is Serbia’s lifeline. Reaching from the Hungarian border to Serbia’s capital Belgrade and down to North Macedonia, the ...
Keeping roads and highways safe is a highly responsible task. In addition to autumn’s and winter’s perils, the increase of weather fluctuations and extreme weather events throughout the year pose further challenges to road decision-makers. Ideally, a dense network of road weather monitoring stations reliably provides accurate, hyper-local data from the road. Wherever that is not ...
The MTO knew they had to project traffic impacts to prepare to move people through the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), starting with benchmarking its current state of traffic. However, they did not have road sensors in all the locations where they needed to gather traffic volume data. They had no time to install traditional sensors, which are ...
A versatile solution Getting timely road traffic information in a format that makes the decision-making process easier requires accurate sensors in suitable locations. ...
The pictures show a track control vehicle equipped with the mobile road sensor MARWIS, which checks the road condition before take-offs and landings. ...
In the South German City Geislingen, a road weather system has been providing important data on road weather conditions and environmental conditions since the beginning of 2016. A non-invasive NIRS31 ground sensor, a WS400 compact weather sensor and a camera are the most important components of the station. In addition, a MARWIS ...
Gallen in Switzerland with an innovative road weather system. It consists of the contactless surface sensor StaRWIS delivering the road conditions dry, damp, wet, icy, snow-covered, critically wet and chemically wet. Furthermore, it is able to output road surface temperatures, water films up to 6 mm, dew point temperatures, ...
But thanks to the Dutch Air Force, the runway is kept usable with the help of our mobile road sensor MARWIS. Although the sensor is still in the test phase, it has delivered satisfactory results so far. ...
As you may can imagine, the de-icing process takes time as well as manpower and significantly impacts the airport’s departure capacity. MeteoGroup tested the mobile road and runway sensor MARWIS as a tool to predict the formation of ice on airplane wings. ...
In a tender issued by the Estonian Road Administration (ERA), Lufft sensors were able to prevail against their competitors. Six new sets of road weather sensors (Visibility Sensor VS2k, Weather Sensor WS300, Precipitation Sensor R2S and Wind Sensor VENTUS) were ...
CODEL tunnel sensors are designed exclusively for road tunnel applications. Our range of sensors provide all the essential measurements necessary to monitor and control the tunnel atmosphere. Whilst the initial cost to install analysers into the tunnel may seem significant the energy savings achieved over a period of just one year can show a ...
The table below summarizes the main measurement issues, mainly related to sensor and measurement system accuracy, and the main items for a proper signal processing, taking into account filters, sensor position effects, and sensors-vehicle-road inclination effects Typical measurement issues Slip angle accuracy (noise, drift, ...

Since the aircraft’s wing temperature is a much more accurate indicator, MeteoGroup used that temperature as a premise for its study. Using the mobile (road) weather sensor MARWIS, MeteoGroup studied temperature behavior using a special test wing at Schiphol – with surprising results. ...
Of course, the state-of-the-art traffic weather sensors from Lufft must not be missing here! That’s why we will be present at Booth 638. Make sure to stop by to see our booth highlights: StaRWIS – Lufft’s new, compact, non-invasive road surface sensor MARWIS – the mobile road weather ...
The station consists of an Lufft WS600 compact weather sensor and a WT1 road surface sensor and measures surface temperature, air temperature, relative humidity, precipitation intensity, type of precipitation, amount of precipitation, air pressure, wind direction and wind speed. ...
Another exhibited product will be the StaRWIS – a non-invasive road and runway weather sensor that simultaneously and in real-time determines surface conditions, temperatures, relative humidity, dew and freezing point temperatures, as well as weather-related friction. ...
The iOS App for managing the mobile road weather sensor MARWIS has got a new feature called “Cam Picture”. ...
The basis is formed by IT systems coupled to sensors, which can interact with other components via state-of-the-art network technology. ...
For this, about 70% of our customers use the Lufft WS600 all-in-one weather sensor, which covers all the mentioned parameters simultaneously. In addition, a road weather sensor is connected, which observes the conditions on the road surface. There are surface-embedded and non-invasive, spectroscopic sensors. ...
