All three types fog--upslope, radiation, advection--are state, resulting lack visibility, limited contrast, distorted perception, judgment errors, reduction headway speed vehicle traveling foggy conditions. The state suffering from suitable fog detection warning systems along many its arterials where major issue. purpose this project to determine favorable conditions terms different meteorological components introduce various forecasting tools utilized by agencies processes. In addition, efforts are made identify critical fog-prone areas These places might serve as potential locations for implementation systems. Also, complete description available that currently active country presented report provide useful insight regarding these systems' capabilities effectiveness. Finally, through simple benefit-cost analysis, justification efficiency demonstrated.
