The project started with reviewing the literature of available datasets, established AI models and practices in the U.S. and other countries. The research team investigated the acquisition of high-resolution images with American Association of Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) standard MP47 and created a tool for viewing the vendor’s da

The development of a national standard data format for two-dimensional/three-dimensional (2D/3D) pavement surface images and Artificial Intelligence (AI) Machine Learning (ML) in Computer Vision adopted by AASHTO and embraced by state DOTs has provided TxDOT the opportunity to develop new methods for automated pavement condition assessment. This re

Corrosion of steel tendons in post-tensioned bridge girders can lead to section loss and, if left unaddressed, may result in strand rupture and a corresponding reduction in girder strength. In the state of Florida, a number of remedial measures have been explored and implemented to address such issues, including the use of corrosion inhibitors to m

Work zones along interstates often have increased congestion and crash rates when locations are close to or over capacity. Having agile monitoring methods to identifying emerging issues and challenges can provide data to transportation agency decision makers to refine maintenance of traffic plans and inform future designs. This study developed tech
