RoadMonitor: An Intelligent Road Surface Condition Monitoring System
نویسندگان
چکیده
Well maintained road network is an essential requirement for the safety and consistency of vehicles moving on that road and the wellbeing of people in those vehicles. On the other hand, guaranteeing an adequate maintenance by road managers can be achieved via having sufficient and accurate information concerning road infrastructure quality that can be as well utilized concurrently by the widespread means of users' mobile devices both locally and worldwide. This article proposes a road condition monitoring framework that detects the road anomalies such as speed bumps. In the proposed approach, the main indicator for road anomalies is the accelerometer sensor in addition to the gyroscope around gravity rotation as a crossvalidation method to confirm the detection results that were gathered from the accelerometer.

Poorly maintained roads are a fact of life in most developing countries; it is certainly the case in Sri Lanka. The lack of funding to maintain the road surfaces is a main reason for the dilapidated condition of roads in these countries, but it is not the only reason. The absence of an effective monitoring system is one reason for this problem. A monitoring system can help to take remedial acti...

Slewing bearing, which is widely applied in tank, excavator and wind turbine, is a critical component of rotational machine. Standard procedure for bearing life calculation and condition assessment was established in general rolling bearings, nevertheless, relatively less literatures, in regard to the health condition assessment of slewing bearing, were published in past. Real time health condi...

2 Foreword This project investigates remote sensing technology for monitoring condition of unpaved roads. The unpaved roads are usually low-volume roads serving remote areas and agricultural business and linking agricultural communities to nearby towns and markets. Although more than half of all US roads are unpaved, assessment of unpaved road condition has been rarely addressed in transportati...

Road infrastructure in countries like India is expanding at a rapid pace and is becoming increasingly difficult for authorities to identify and fix the bad roads in time. Current Geographical Information Systems (GIS) lack information about on-road features like road surface type, speed breakers and dynamic attribute data like the road quality. Hence there is a need to build road monitoring sys...
