Freezing nights ahead: a gritting plan

What it does

Every afternoon in winter: the coldest of the next three nights in your city, with a gritting and snow plan by xMap AI for the roads team and the crews on call.

In one sentence: Every day at 14:00, in Toronto, get the 3-day weather forecast, sort them by temp_min and keep the top 5, write a report with xMap AI, then email the list to you.

Why it is useful

Ice on the roads causes accidents within hours. Gritting before the freeze keeps the city moving.

Who it is for

Government & smart cities. Municipalities, agencies and city teams planning services and keeping residents safe and informed. Every use case for government & cities

Best use cases

• A city roads department
• A highways contractor
• A transport authority

What each run gives you

• An email

The time it saves

Every day at 14:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 30 minutes each time; it runs about 30 times a month, so it saves about 15 hours a month (an estimate). It is easy: 6 blocks.
