This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many techniques for collecting highway inventory data have been used by state and local agencies in the U.S. These techniques include field inventory, photo/video log, integrated GPS/GIS mapping systems, aerial photography, satellite imagery, virtual photo tourism, terrestrial laser scanners, mobile mapping systems (i.e., vehicle-based LiDAR, and airborne LiDAR). These highway inventory data collection methods vary in terms of equipment used, time requirements, and costs. Each of these techniques has its specific advantages, disadvantages, and limitations. This research project sought to determine cost-effective methods to collect highway inventory data not currently stored in IDOT databases for implementing the recently published Highway Safety Manual (HSM). The highway inventory data collected using the identified methods can also be used for other functions within the Bureau of Safety Engineering, other IDOT offices, or local agencies. A thorough literature review was conducted to summarize the available techniques, costs, benefits, logistics, and other issues associated with all relevant methods of collecting, analyzing, storing, retrieving, and viewing the relevant data. In addition, a web-based survey of 49 U.S. states and 7 Canadian provinces has been conducted to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of various highway inventory data collection methods from different state departments of transportation. To better understand the importance of the data to be collected, sensitivity analyses of input variables for the HSM models of different roadway types were performed. The field experiments and data collection were conducted at four types of roadway segments (rural two-lane highway, rural multi-lane highway, urban and suburban arterial, and freeway). A comprehensive evaluation matrix was developed to compare various data collection techniques based on different criteria. Recommendations were developed for selecting data collection techniques for data requirements and roadway conditions.

Book excerpt: An efficient and accurate inventory of a state highway agency's assets, along with the means to assess the condition of those assets and model their performance, is critical to enabling an agency to make informed investment decisions in a Transportation Asset Management (TAM) environment. Today, new technologies provide fast and improved ways to gather, process, and analyze data. The key is to identify and gather the most useful, reliable, cost-effect information and use it to make informed decisions for asset management. Four key infrastructure areas have been identified as primary asset components; pavements, bridges, geotechnical features, and roadside appurtenances. Each area contains multiple categories and data elements important for sound decision making. Although some similarities exist in these four primary categories, the nature of data collection may differ, depending on the asset type. The, sheer number of data elements and the length of asset networks for pavements and roadside appurtenances render the automated highway speed data collection method a necessity rather than a luxury. However, the discrete nature of bridges and geotechnical features make the automated mobile data collection method on a network level unfeasible with today's technology. Important issues in the collection process include precision, subjectivity and variability of the process itself, as well as speed, safety of the survey crew, proximity of the public, cost, etc. Although previous research has attempted to address these issues and determine the most appropriate method(s), the question remains as to which roadway data collection system is best for state highway agencies given real world constraints. This research set up a "sealed envelope" experiment wherein the identification, location, description, and quality of the asset data elements are known only to NCSU researchers. Vendors are informed of only the data necessary to perform their evaluation. To support this effort at 95-mile test course near Raleigh, North Carolina was identified, which contained a sampling of pavement, roadside, geotechnical and bridge elements. This document reports on the findings from the study

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Different types of data are required for managing the road infrastructure. Inventory data describe the physical elements of a road system. Condition data describe the condition of elements that can be expected to change over time. There are a wide range of technologies available to the road manager for measuring attributes of the road network. The challenge is to select the appropriate equipment, given local conditions and the way in which the data are expected to be used. The purpose of this note is to give a general view of the currently available survey technologies applied to pavements, bridges and traffic. This includes an assessment of the applicability of these technologies in developing countries. The goal is to assist managers in establishing an appropriate and sustainable e data collection program and procuring the appropriate equipment to collect the data. This note is a summary of the report 'Data Collection Technologies for Road Management' (see report no. 37372). The note opens with a discussion of data collection requirements. This is then followed by separate discussions on pavements, bridges and traffic survey technologies. A cost/performance analysis between available equipment is presented in each section. Finally, recommendations for data collection are presented as a guidance to managers in developing countries.
