		An Advanced Road Weather Information System consists of multiple sites, each containing various meteorological sensors collecting weather information, such as ambient temperature, relative humidity, air pressure, wind speed/direction, solar radiation, precipitation, visibility are being reported to a central location for an up-to-date viewing of incoming data.
		Road state information is being collected through an Intelligent Road Sensor (IRS) capable of measuring surface as well as sub-surface temperatures, snow, ice and water film height. Chemical concentration and freezing temperature is obtained as a direct output of this sensor.
			All sensors connect to a remote processing unit (RPU), installed in close proximity to the roadway. A Server polls each ARWIS at a predetermined interval or on a "change on event" based algorithm. The Server collects and stores the data and uploads the same to an Internet based user interface. Road maintenance crews access the latest information through a standard Internet browser.
			The LUFFT ARWIS system is based on an open system architecture and a modular concept, permitting the connection of a wide selection of industrial sensors available on the market today.
