Abstract
Method and system for managing data about a road condition and providing the data to vehicles includes generating information using a sensor system at a first vehicle about a condition of a surface on which the first vehicle is travelling, wirelessly communicating the surface condition information to an off-vehicle location using a first communications system on the first vehicle, and determining a position of the first vehicle using a position determining system, e.g., on the first vehicle. The surface condition information from the first vehicle is associated with the determined position of the first vehicle, to know the location at which the surface condition information is pertinent. Via a second communications system on a second vehicle, the surface condition information from the off-vehicle location is received based on location of the second vehicle, so that the operator of the second vehicle is thereby notified of a potentially hazardous road surface condition.
