Abstract
Our model was initially based on real-life snow plowing processes and their statistics; where possible we used real-life data to configure the model, such as the salting material, loading times, the quantity of salting material distributed per km, the characteristics of the plowing vehicle, etc. Due to the heavy conditions during the execution of planned winter services, plans sometimes had to be readjusted on the go. Combining optimization with custom software for real-time execution, planning and service monitoring, assisted from the cloud, provided even more deterministic cost and environmental management, and gave further opportunity for optimization processes.
