Workshop Details

The city winter weather dispatch service department needs a web application tool that can be

used to advise the city service clerks what resources are required to treat a given set of winter

weather conditions. The web application you develop will replace the manual chart$-$based method

currently being used.

The solution will depend on three $(3)$ user input values that describe the weather conditions:

$1.$ Type of Weather:

$$ Snow

$$ Ice

$$ Mixed $($combination of both snow and ice$)$

$2.$ Accumulation Amount per Hour:

$$ Measured in centimeters $($cm$)$ when the weather type is snow or mixed

$$ Measured in millimeters $($mm$)$ when the weather type is ice

$3.$ Temperature in degrees Celsius

Your solution will need to analyze the input values and determine the necessary resources

required to treat the weather conditions. Refer to the chart on the next page that is currently used

by staff.

There are three $(3)$ types of resources that can potentially be dispatched: snowplow, sand truck,

and a salt truck. If a snowplow truck is required, the number of trucks should be specified. When

sand or salt trucks are needed, the number of trucks required should be specified as well as the

rate of application $($light$,$ normal, heavy$).$ The solution should output a concise meaningful

message that describes to the clerk $($user$)$ the necessary action$($s$)$ to take.
