Pavement Condition Data AnalysisSource: Journal of Transportation Engineering, Part A: Systems:;1987:;Volume ( 113 ):;issue: 004DOI: 10.1061/(ASCE)0733-947X(1987)113:4(413)Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper describes a computer methodology for analyzing pavement condition data to define inputs for pavement management systems. This system of programs was developed during a Federal Highway Administration research project. In the project, eight state highway departments were studied to determine the types of pavement condition data collected, procedures used for collecting data, the inputs to the states' pavement management systems, and computer programs used by the states to analyze raw pavement condition data. Several of the programs were assembled into the Method for Analyzing Pavement Condition, MAPCON, during a project performed at Pennsylvania State University. These and other existing or new programs (a total of 18) were identified, tested, modified, and incorporated onto a MS/DOS microcomputer system. MAPCON guides the user through selection of analysis method, raw data entry, and data analysis. The path taken by MAPCON is determined by user interaction. The types of data analyzed by MAPCON include safety, serviceability, structural capacity, surface condition, or a combination of the latter three.
