Abstract:

"During 2006, WisDOT and the Construction Materials and Support Center at UW-Madison worked together to develop ; a specification and QC/QA procedures for GPS machine guidance on highway construction grading operations. These ; specifications and procedures are intended for incorporation in contracts on two to five pilot projects during the 2007 ; construction season. The 2006 work, and the 2007 pilot projects are the first two steps in a phased implementation plan ; that includes refinement of the specification and procedures after the 2007 pilots, additional pilots during 2008, and ; potential statewide implementation of optional GPS machine guidance for grading on 2009 contracts. ; To be effective, the goals, objectives, and methods for data collection and analysis for the 2007 pilot projects must be ; well-articulated; the project sites must be carefully selected; and a set of deliverables and management plan for ; coordination of the effort must be developed."
