Environmental sensors include a wide array of sensors, including those that monitor weather, roadway surface, water level and air quality conditions. These sensors are typically connected to a nearby microprocessor termed a Remot Processor Unit (RPU). An Environmental Sensor Station (ESS) consists of the RPU plus its suite of sensors.
Typically, this equipment is permanently located at a site along a travel corridor. In some cases, the "stations" may be portable, or even mobile. For the purpose of this standard, all three types of stations are called ESS. In the transportation community, these devices are frequently used in order to improve roadway maintenance and traffic operations.
