SCAN Web is the latest Road/Runway Weather Information Systems (RWIS) user interface from Surface System's, Inc. SCAN Web uses standard Internet technologies to display data from your RWIS. These technologies include the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), and Active Server Pages (ASPs). These standards form the foundation of what has become commonly known as the World Wide Web (WWW). SCAN Web makes use of these standard technologies to display SCAN RWIS data using widely available HTML browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer.

SCAN Web provides powerful graphical data display pages. Users can easily select various data views to display produce either concise summary views or detailed RWIS data. Site Summary, Site Status, and historical data pages are available to enhance operational effectiveness. In addition, SCAN Web integrates current video images when sites are configured with video cameras. SCAN Web can also display weather and pavement forecasts from SSI's SCAN*Cast forecast service.

The purpose of this document is to describe standard SCAN Web functionality. Customized pages and/or features will not be covered by this document.

SCAN Web ties Web addresses, or Uniform Resource Locators (URLs), to the RWIS data collected in your SCAN SQL Server database. Your SCAN Web site is a collection of RWIS data views that are displayed on web pages in your web browser. SCAN Web uses Active Server Pages (ASPs) to dynamically build each web page displaying the latest data collected by your RWIS. Each SCAN Web page also contains hyperlinks that allow you to move easily between pages to view your all of your RWIS data in various formats.

Accessing the data from your SCAN Web Server can be accomplished two ways. The fastest way is via a network connection. Deploying your SCAN Server on a local area network is by all means the preferred way to distribute your RWIS data to the people who need it the most. To access your SCAN Web site from a network, simply open your Internet browser and enter the name of the SCAN Web Server in the Address box of your browser. Your initial SCAN Web page should be displayed when you enter this name and press return. If you get an error message, you may need to insert an entry for the web server in the Hosts file or you can try entering the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the web server. Please contact your System or Network Administrator if you experience problems accessing the web site across your network.

You can also provide dial-in user access using a phone line and a remote access service (RAS) dial-up connection. Users would require a dial-up connection and a modem on their personal computer. Dial-in lines and modems dedicated for user access would also be required on your SCAN Server. Once users connect to the SCAN Server they can use their browser of choice to access the SCAN Web user interface as if they were on a network.

Contact your Information Services or System Administrator for more information on accessing your SCAN Web Server.

To set SCAN Web as your default home page, set the SCAN Web Home page as the default "Home" page in your browser's preferences. If you don't want the SCAN Web page to be your home page and you don't want to type in the name every time, you can add the page to your Favorites folder. The method for setting preferences differs slightly between Netscape and Internet Explorer so please refer to your browser's on-line documentation for details. Once the SCAN Web page is added to your Favorites list, you can access the page at any time by selecting the Favorites pull down menu and selecting the SCAN Web page.

The navigation bar is displayed on the left side of the screen and provides a standard location for the majority of SCAN Web links. The navigation bar has been split into five main sections: SCAN Web, Maps, Summaries, Summary, and Site. Different sections will be displayed based on the page you are currently viewing. Most SCAN Web pages also contain embedded links that provide additional navigation capabilities.

The remainder of this document will describe the each menu section and provide a detailed description for each SCAN Web page.

The SCAN Web menu section will be displayed on all pages. It contains links to system level pages such as the SCAN Web Home page, the SCAN*Cast Summary page, the Camera Summary, the Bridge Sprayer Summary, and the Slide Show page (when configured). You may also request other links to be added to this section such as a link to a state DOT home page.

The SCAN Web home page is also referred to as the main menu page. The default SCAN Web Home page will display your registration information and copyright and software license information. The Home link provides an easy way to return to your SCAN Web Home page. This page can be modified to display custom information for your installation if requested. The Home page should be used as a starting point for each SCAN Web session and provides access to all RWIS data.

This link provides a central location for all SCAN*Casts delivered to your SCAN Server. A SCAN*Cast is an optional forecast service provided by Surface Systems' staff of meteorologists. If you subscribe to the SCAN*Cast service, your SCAN*Casts will be delivered directly to your SCAN Server for easy access. The forecast covers a 24-hour forecast delivered twice a day with additional evening forecasts during snow/ice situations. Three (3) day extended outlooks can also be ordered for delivery on Friday afternoons.
Refer to the SCAN*Cast description provided in the Site Data menu section for further SCAN*Cast details.

The Cameras link provides a central location for all of your site video images that are collected by your SCAN Server. This link will only be displayed when cameras are installed as part of your SCAN system.  The default thumbnail image for each site will be displayed.  Simply select the image to display the desired camera image.  Please refer to the Camera page description provided in the Site Data menu section for more details.

The Bridge Sprayers link provides a central location for all of your bridge sprayers that are configured on your SCAN Server. This link will only be displayed when bridge sprayers are installed as part of your SCAN system. Please refer to the Bridge Sprayers section for more details.

The Devices link provides a central location for all of your devices that are configured on your SCAN Server. This link will only be displayed when devices are installed as part of your SCAN system. Please refer to the Site Status section for more details.

When configured, the Slide Show page displays a sequence of predefined SCAN Web pages. The same set of web pages will be displayed for all users.

The Related Links menu section will be displayed on all pages. It contains links to this User's Guide, the Glossary, the Disable/Enable Java Links option, and the SCAN Web Administration Site

The User's Guide is provided for information on the use of SCAN Web and provides a quick link to this document.

SCAN Web also provides an on-line glossary which helps identify each data item as well as important RWIS terms. Simply select a term or column heading to display a brief description.

Throughout SCAN Web links are provided to historical surface data, SCAN*Casts, and maps. Due to varying download speeds that are available (dial-up and network), SCAN Web allows users to specify whether a link to these three types of pages should link directly to web page that uses embedded Java applets or to a page that does not use Java applets. Pages that use Java applets require more download time than most other web pages. If you are accessing SCAN Web via a dial-up connection you may wish to disable the default Java links. Once disabled, any embedded links (such as History links) that linked to a Java page will then link direct to a table view. You will still be able to display graphs and maps; however, you will now link to a table view page by default. In most cases, once a page containing a Java applet has been cached by your browser it will display much faster.

The Disable/Enable Java link provides users the capability to change the default behavior of embedded links between Java pages and table view pages. To view any SCAN Web page that uses Java, you must be using a Java enabled browser and have the Java functionality properly configured and enabled.

Additional links can be added to the SCAN Web menu section for any URL address by contacting your SSI representative.

The Maps menu will be displayed if your SCAN Web configuration contains any regional, airport, or site maps. SCAN Web maps use embedded Java to display color-coded sensor locations and information collected by your RWIS providing a quick and easy overview of the current weather conditions on a regional or site basis. Map pages will automatically refresh every six minutes.

All maps described in this section use embedded Java applets. This menu section is not displayed if you have disabled your Java links.

Regional maps are designed to provide a graphical overview of a given area of operations such as a state, district, or county. Each RWIS site is represented by a triangle symbol and is color-coded based on the "most critical" sensor at the site. If all surface sensors at the site are reporting identical statuses the sensor with the lowest surface temperature will be displayed. Refer to the SCAN Web glossary for the list of surface statuses and their order of criticality (from most critical to least critical).

To identify a site, simply move your mouse over the triangle and a label will be displayed showing the site name and the date and time of the data for that icon. You may view detailed information by left clicking on the site's triangle. This will display a data window on the right side of the map that will display atmospheric and surface sensor data reported by the site.

Below the site data section, links will be displayed that control the types of sensors that will be displayed on the map. You can display maps that will only display deck (bridge or elevated) sensors, only runway (sensors installed on runways or taxiways) sensors, only roadway sensors, or all sensors (default). For example, you can configure a map to show the most critical bridge sensor for each site by selecting the Deck Sensors link. If a site does not have the selected sensor type it will be represented by a white triangle. This sensor filter will remain in affect until the All Sensors or the Sensors link located in the Summary menu section on the navigation bar is selected.

Links to the selected site's Site Status page, as well as, links to site maps configured for the site will also be provided. You may refresh the map by selecting the Refresh Map link. If data for a location has expired (by default, older than 2 hours), the symbol representing the location will be colored black.

Regional maps can also display data tags for a single data type (i.e. Air Temperature, Surface Status, etc.).  Simply select the data item you wish to display and a data tag will be displayed for each site provide the site is configured for and currently reporting the desired reading.

Airport maps provide the same functionality as the regional maps described above; however, the region shown covers an entire airfield. In addition to displaying sites, an airport map will also show each surface sensor (represented by a circle) color-coded with the current surface status reported by the surface sensor. This provides airport customers with large airfields a convenient way to display all sites and sensors on one map. Users may select either site or sensor symbols to view detailed RWIS information for each location.

Site maps depict a single site location, typically a stretch of road, intersection, interchange, a close up view of an airport runway, or portion of an airfield. The background for a site map can be a digital photo, site graphic that depicts the site in detail, or a camera image collected from the site. If a camera image is used, the map background will update each time a new image is collected.

In addition to displaying sensor and site locations, site maps can also be configured to display data tags that display most atmospheric and sensor data for each symbol shown. These tags will "float" on top of each map and will only display data that is currently being reported for the site. Since data tags will change in size depending on the data displayed, you can temporarily move a data tag by using the left mouse button to "drag" the tag to a new location. Data tags will return to their original location each time the site map refreshes.

Atmospheric data tags will be colored gray when their data is current. Surface sensor data tags will be colored based on the surface status reported by the sensor when the data is current. All data tags will be colored black when the data being displayed has expired (by default, older than 2 hours). If data has expired, the symbol representing the location will be colored black. Data may expire due to communication problems between the SCAN Server and RWIS site or the polling interval for the expired site may need to be shortened.

All symbols and data tags will be displayed on site maps regardless of the type of sensor filter current in affect.

The Summaries menu section contains links to each Site Group Summary page that is configured on your SCAN Server. A site group can best be described as a logical group or subset of RWIS sites such as a state, district, city, or airport. By selecting a link from this section you will display a SCAN Web Site Summary page for the group selected.

Once you have selected a group, the Summary Menu will be displayed on the navigation bar. This section provides links to the different types of summary pages provided by SCAN Web including Sites, Sensors, and Traffic. All summary pages will automatically refresh every six minutes and contain links to an on-line glossary that provides definitions for each column.

The Site Summary page provides a one-line overview for all sites contained in a given site group. The surface data shown on this page always reflects most critical sensor for each site. Refer to the glossary for a list of surface status conditions listed from most to least critical. The data displayed for each site includes the following data: (if the site is configured for the specified sensor type):

The Camera page provides a full size view of the camera image collected from the selected site. This page also provides a link (located at the upper right of the camera page) to a Java applet that allows you to loop through the last six images collected at the site. The looping applet provides the user with a standard "recorder" control bar including a play, rewind, forward, scroll, stop, and time delay between frames. The date and time of each camera image will be displayed as the images are displayed.

A Camera Configuration link will also be provided if the site has been configured to support a camera with multiple camera positions. Camera links will only be displayed for sites configured with cameras.

The Camera Configuration page allows authorized users to modify the list of pre-configured camera positions to be collected from the site. A maximum of eight camera positions may be enabled per site.

Once a user submits changes to the camera configuration, the SCAN Server will then attempt to immediately send the configuration changes to the RWIS site. This will only be successful when the communications channel to the site is available and your system has been configured for on demand data retrieval. Queued changes that are not automatically sent in this manner will be transferred during the next scheduled communications session.

Changes that have not been sent to the RWIS site will be identified on the configuration page by a note displaying the user making the latest request and the time of the request.

A link will also be provided to the Camera Configuration Log, which displays the last several camera position change requests. Once on this page, users can change the time period covered by the log and link to the glossary by selecting the column heading links to see a definition for each data item.

These pages are only provided if the site has been configured to support a camera with multiple camera positions.

The Traffic Status page displays the same information as the Traffic Summary page; however, only traffic data for a particular site is displayed. If the site is configured with a camera, the current camera image will also be displayed on this page. The camera image also provides a link to the site's Camera page.

This link will be displayed when a SCAN*Cast (SSI's 24-hour pavement forecast service) is being delivered to your SCAN Server for the site selected. Your SCAN*Cast can be shown in a table or in a graphical format (depending on whether you have disabled or enabled your Java links). A SCAN*Cast displays all of the following forecast information and provides links to each of the following forecast components:

Temperatures - Displays forecast and actual temperatures for air, dew point and surface. In addition, a wind chill or heat index forecast is displayed, if applicable.
Precipitation & Cloud Cover - Displays the forecast and actual precipitation type and intensity, the cloud cover forecast, and the probability of precipitation forecast.
Snow Accumulation - Displays the snow accumulation forecast.
