Comparing Different Equipment and Applications in Pavement Data Collection as Part of Road Management System

Abstract National roads are the main arteries in road transport infrastructure. Therefore, all agencies or authorities responsible of infrastructure, pay attention to management systems. Albania is experiencing an increase infrastructure investments and maintenance this network. There have been some attempts establish national secondary These systems attempt achieve different objectives, such as provision adequate level service, preservation etc. A good R oad sset M anagement S ystem (RAMS), helps carry out actions inventory, storage assets well as, supports decision-making process. At present, there several data collection devices applications that job efficiently. The purpose paper present analysis use comparison equipment Cell Phone Based Systems (MiniROMDAS, PaveProf-V2 RoadLab_Pro) used for pavement collection, necessary calculation International Roughness Index (IRI), along network Albania. made, by analyzing results obtained a 20 km long segment Albania, using various above-mentioned technologies. Also, overview currently available technologies providing information could assist managers establishing appropriate program given.
