Real-Time Dispatching and Monitoring of Scalable Snow Removal Fleets
Today’s unpredictable winter weather demands a rapid response from busy municipalities. It’s critical for fleets to scale quickly,
whether internally or through contractors, and optimize snow removal operations, reducing idle time and saving money.
When communities experience ice and snow, agencies and residents need to know which routes have been treated and cleared,
which ones are next on the schedule, and when it’s safe to travel again. Managing snowplows “on-demand” is
important, so too is keeping tabs on individual contributions to road clearing activities. SNOWiQ makes it all possible.
