Multi-scale wavelet transform filtering of non-uniform pavement surface image background for automated pavement distress identification

Investigation of Image Archiving for Pavement Surface Distress Survey

Transportation Informatics: Advanced Image Processing Techniques Automated Pavement Distress Evaluation

The current project, funded by MIOH-UTC for the period 1/1/20094/30/2010, is concerned with the development of the framework for a transportation facility inspection system using advanced image processing techniques. The focus of this study is on the technical details of investigating and utilizing state-of-the-art image analysis techniques to further advance research in image processing based ...

Automated Pavement Distress Data Collection and Analysis:

This paper describes a 3-D automated pavement distress data collection and analysis system based on NRC’s Biris sensor technology. The paper introduces the problem to be solved, the selected design criteria, and the adopted solution to monitor the quality of road surfaces. The system geometry for the acquisition of the threedimensional coordinates of pavement surface distresses is presented. Mu...

Image Analysis for Automated Pavement Cracking Evaluation

Image processing technology plays an important part in the analysis and evaluation of pavement surface cracking. The pattern recognition method for crack geometry proposed in this paper makes it possible to extract data necessary for evaluating the extent and severity of cracking quantitatively. In this newly developed method, low-resolution images are used first to extract crack regions, and t...
