WINTERTERM: Glossary of Terms for Winter Maintenance Release 1.4

NEW: New language (Iclandic) and corrections in Danish

In the framework of the European COST 344 Action 'Improvements to Snow and Ice Control on European Roads and Bridges' a Glossary of Terms for Winter Maintenance was developed. It is now available as a preliminary version. The glossary includes about 180 terms and explanations in 11 languages (Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian, Iclandic, Italian, Spanish, Swedish). The terms are sorted in 8 categories: Weather/Climate, Ice, Snow, Spreading, Snow clearance, Ice and Snow Protection, Management of Winter Maintenance and Others. The database can be searched for translations of specific terms and be used to create bilingual dictionaries. It is free and provided in Microsoft Access 97 and Access 2000 format.
