The Problem
Harsh weather conditions pose a threat to transportation safety and human lives.
Why It Matters
Global climate change will cause an increase in extreme weather events and in turn, put more people at risk of danger.
Our Solution
We want to create a website/platform to analyze the relationship between harsh weather and transportation safety. The data our platform will be based on can be leveraged to make actionable recommendations during extreme weather events. Worsening weather conditions will likely lead to more traffic related injuries and deaths. By compiling and analyzing data on weather and traffic events, we will identify problematic areas of traffic infrastructure under extreme weather. Our website will help to lessen the negative impacts of climate change on transportation safety.
