Integrating Pavement Sensing Data for Pavement Condition Evaluation [PDF]
Sensors, 2021 Highway pavements are usually monitored in terms of their surface performance assessment, since the major cause that triggers maintenance is reduced pavement serviceability due to surface distresses, excessive pavement unevenness and/or texture loss. A common way to detect pavement surface condition is by the use of vehicle-mounted laser sensors that ...
