According to foreign media reports, Vaisala, a weather, environmental and industrial measurement company, has entered into a partnership with renovo, an automotive software company, which will provide data for renovo's connected vehicle platform. In the early stage, the road state data set of Vaisala can be obtained through renovo's system. (photo source: Vaisala official website) the auto driving team using renovo platform will be able to access Vaisala's road state data and environmental intelligence seamlessly. These data, combined with Vaisala's algorithm and analysis system, provide important observation information, which can help interconnected autopilot run safely under all weather conditions. "The renovo platform provides transportation companies and OEMs with new ways to develop, test and operate fleets," said Markus Melin, vice president of Vaisala. Vaisala recently acquired foreca's professional B2B weather services business, which focuses on road weather. We are very happy to provide the latest pavement information through renovo platform, using our observation ability. " After integration with Vaisala, the renovo platform will provide an unprecedented set of environmental observation data. The connected autonomous vehicle will receive current and predicted road weather conditions from multiple sources, including reference level fixed sensors, mobile road weather stations (including Vaisala's mobile detector MD30), and visual road conditions obtained by computer vision. Vaisala's algorithm and analysis system will integrate all the observed data, combine it with weather forecast and road information, and send the near real-time view and reliable future road data set to the interconnected autonomous vehicles.
