Klimator launches camera functionality for road weather stations
As a first step in a continued development plan, a camera function is being launched for Klimator's road weather stations. The product has been developed at Klimator's development department in Odense, Denmark, where the company has its foremost experts in IoT solutions.
In 2018, Klimator launched the first version of the IoT-based road weather station focusing on winter road maintenance with measurements of road surface temperature, air temperature and air humidity. The road weather stations contribute with valuable measurements as input to the calculation of future road laws and as a visual support for decision-makers of state or municipal roads. Klimator RWIS IoT has grown strongly in the Nordic markets since its inception and is today a leader in the Danish, Swedish and Norwegian markets.
“We are very proud to now be launching Klimator IoT CAM for all our markets – it is one of many needs that our existing customers have requested as an addition to the current solution. In dialogue with our markets, we are continuously adding new relevant capabilities, and we are very proud of the great interest”, says Søren Pedersen, Director of Partnerships & Operations.

About Klimator's IoT Road Weather Stations
Klimator’s road weather station provides real-time information on how weather impacts local road conditions.
