First responders are increasingly deploying drones to rapidly assess a situation and target rescues for those in need.  TruWeather understands the challenge of identifying micro-scale weather threats to ground transportation and drones.  We are leading a micro-scale road weather proof of concept project on Interstate 81 in Virginia that transportation officials are finding extremely valuable this winter.  Additionally, with The Tech Garden in Syracuse, NY, TruWeather is developing a drone weather risk management and analytics service to improve drone safety and operational effectiveness during deployment by state transportation managers and first responders.
