Abstract: This paper presents design and implementation of a high-availability, low-bandwidth requirement vehicular and portable connectivity system which allows first responders to communicate relevant and timely information. Since ...

Abstract: This paper presents a cost-benefit analysis of mobile terrestrial laser scanning (MTLS), specifically in highway infrastructure (HI) applications using data and requirements from the western United States. MTLS can be used ...

Abstract: This paper discusses the use of autonomous mowers for application in highway vegetation control. In recent work by these writers, a unique autonomous mower testbed has been developed to prove the efficacy of such an approach. ...

Abstract: This paper analyzes the kinematics and the efficiency of the planetary roller screw mechanism (RSM) to provide a fundamental basis to support its various applications. The mechanical structure ...

Abstract: This case study examines two essential aspects of mobile terrestrial laser scanning (MTLS). First, it provides results of an investigation into key data management issues experienced by a fairly large producer/consumer of ...

Abstract: The standard method in surveying practice for adjusting mobile terrestrial laser scan (MTLS) data to correct for global navigation satellite system (GNSS) positioning errors consists of placing a detailed network of surveyed ...
