TRB conducted a webinar on Monday, July 17, 2017 from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM ET that featured research from the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP)’s Synthesis 501: Pavement Management Systems: Putting Data to Work.
This webinar examined current pavement management practices, focusing primarily on the types of systems, data analysis and performance modeling, and how data is used to influence agency decisions. The presenters provided several case studies to illustrate how pavement management data can be used to improve data quality, conduct a safety analysis, improve agency performance measures, and monitor contractor performance. Contact Reggie Gillum at RGillum@nas.edu for instructions on receiving a copy of the recorded webinar.
The slides are available.
