Most public works departments in warmer climate regions do not have the means to implement extensive snow and ice remediation programs. But when inclement weather does occur, the incidents still need to be managed, tracked, and recorded. Attend this case study of how the Greenville, South Carolina, public works department implemented a work management program to dispatch and geo-spatially track inclement weather operations.

Learning Objectives:

Discuss how using the resources and data the already have can achieve surprising positive results.
Evaluate some unorthodox ideas used by Greenville for dispatching snow and ice events to determine if they would work for your situations.
Review how to implement a temporary command center for dispatching snow and ice events.
