Adaptive Imaging Techniques for Pavement Surface Distress Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Local Authority road networks commonly comprise roads of various functional characteristics and a variety of construction types. In this paper we investigate about the use of digital techniques to obtain field data to increase safety and reduce labour (cost) requirements using a semi-automated distress collection and measurement system. In particular, the proposed algorithm automatically detects cracks and patches after the adjustment of the optical distortion. Moreover, the technique produces an automatic classification and rating to create different categories.

Pavement distresses (damages) are important information for evaluating the road condition and conducting the necessary road maintenance activities. Conventional human visual pavement distress detection method is time consuming, very expensive, labour-intensive and dangerous due to exposure to traffic. Numbers of methods have been introduced for road damage detection in the context of fine struc...
