Measuring the Characteristics of Pavement Surface Images
Imaging systems are commonly used for conducting pavement evaluations. The American
Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials' Standard Practice for
Collecting Images of Pavement Surfaces for Distress Detection
addresses the collection of images. However, there are no widely accepted methods for
measuring the characteristics of pavement surface images such as 2-dimensional optical images
and 3-dimensional surface elevation images.
NCHRP Research Report 1106: Measuring the Characteristics of Pavement Surface Images,
from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program,
presents a state-of-the-art update of methods for measuring and evaluating the characteristics of
pavement surface images collected by 3-dimensional pavement imaging systems.
