A Cost Effective Method for Determining the Position of Mine Haul Road Defects from the Road Edge

A Cost Effective Method for Determining the Position of Mine Haul Road Defects from the Road Edge

This paper describes a simple method for estimating haul road defect positions from alongside roads. It is a method that is cheap and easy to implement, needing only a minimal amount of field equipment and training. Observers are required to estimate the bearing and distance to a defect, and to record their location using a GPS receiver. All further processing is automated and can be done entir...

The Cost of Road Accidents in Iran

This paper gives an up-to-date estimate of the costs of road accidents in Iran. Conventional methods of estimating costs are considered together with special factors which apply to Iran. An attempt is made to quantify direct and indirect costs of accidents, including considerations relating to the exercise of Shar'ia law. The overall results show that road accidents account for between 1.4 and ...
