3rd National Surface Transportation Weather Symposium Session 8 : Keys to Success: Creating synergy in all components of surface transportation weather applications Moderator: Dr. Paul D. Try, Senior Vice President, Science and Technology Corporation Panel Members: Dr. Elbert W. (Joe) Friday, Professor Emeritus, University of Oklahoma Dr. John T. Snow, Professor of Meteorology, Dean, College of Atmospheric and Geographic Sciences, and Administrator, National Weather Center, University of Oklahoma Dr. Alexander E. MacDonald, Deputy Assistant Administrator for NOAA Research Laboratories and Cooperative Institutes, and Director of the NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory Mr. Anthony T. Furst, Director, Office of Freight Management and Operations, and Acting Director, Office of Transportation Operations, Federal Highway Administration

Process based on results from this symposium that will: a) assist in establishing a set of weather condition/effects* priorities for emphasis; b) outline a framework for what products should be available; and c) recommend areas to leverage from existing efforts (e.g., efforts already supporting aviation products) * e.g., The aviation weather program defined service areas (e.g., terminal winds, in-flight icing, ceiling/vis, etc.,) as priority areas for initiatives and projects. 3rd National Surface Transportation Weather Symposium Session 8 : Keys to Success: Creating synergy in all components of surface transportation weather applications Panel to Address the Goals: Observation strategy, R&D priorities (including DA/modeling), Computing needs, Focused products and services, Socioeconomic impacts, Dissemination technologies, and Partnerships

Crashes Persons Injured US Highways US General Aviation Conclusion 6. The combined and complementary effects of implemented aviation weather R&D have produced substantial and continuing benefits for the entire aviation industry. To continue these promising trends... will require sustaining the R&D and implementation programs in progress. National Aviation Weather Program Mid-Course Assessment Accident Reduction Trends Confirm Value of Coordinated R&D Programs The Way Ahead for Reducing Weather Related Deaths/Injuries on US Highways Weather-Related

3rd National Surface Transportation Weather Symposium Symposium Sessions focused on Goals -- Improving Economic and Life Decisions: Social and Economic Impacts and Benefits -- Priorities for Surface Transportation Weather Research and Development -- Leveraging Related R&D Activities to Benefit Surface Transportation -- Observation Data Requirements for Surface Transportation -- Modeling and Prediction: Required Products and Services -- Weather information dissemination in support of effective decision making -- Research to Operations: The Pathway to Operational Implementation

3rd National Surface Transportation Weather Symposium GOALS -- Define an Observation Strategy (types of data/mix of platforms) -- Identify priorities, challenges & opportunities for R&D -- Define advanced computer capacity needs (multiple source DA/Modeling) -- Identify new products & services needed, leverage existing, speed R2O, and consider role of probabilistic predictions -- Investigate the socioeconomic impacts of improved WIST products & services -- Identify emerging dissemination technologies to get the “right message” to surface transportation stakeholders -- Establish stakeholder partnerships to ensure understanding of how to use WIST products and services in their decision-making processes.

Panel Member Comments

Session 8 : Keys to Success: Creating synergy in all components of surface transportation weather applications Suggested Next Steps: a) Background work done and need for more significant interagency coordination and support established -- the time is right to consider requesting a Joint Action Group(s) (JAG) be formed to take on the significant tasking recommended. 1) Develop an integrated observing strategy to include identification of critical new WIST sensor needs. 2) Establish the R&D priorities for agencies to focus on. 3) Improve interagency coordination of Products & Services for common applications (joint use/crossfeed/new requirements). 4) Consider sponsoring a multimode WIST DEMO project (road/rail/maritime/pipeline/ etc.,) b) May also be JAG tasking, but singled out for early focused attention: 1) Socioeconomic surveys of impacts, users (public*) application product/services and format/semantics needs for understandability ( *not tailored specific private user applicatons ) 2) Consider fast tracking a Post-Doc assigned to NCEP/EMC focused on surface transportation needs for M&P and P&S.
