• Abstract:
  The Integrated Remote Sensing and Visualization System (IRSV) was developed in Phase One of this project in order to ; accommodate the needs of today’s Bridge Engineers at the state and local level. Overall goals of this project are: ; • Better understanding and enforcement of a complex inspection process that can bridge the gap between evidence ; gathering and decision making through the implementation of two technologies, LiDAR and Small Format Aerial ; Photography (SFAP); ; • Aggregation, representation and fusion of complex multi-layered heterogeneous data (i.e. aerial photos and ground-mounted LiDAR etc.) with domain application knowledge to support an understandable process for decision-making; ; • Robust, interactive, large scale, visual analytics that support users' decision making; ; • Integration of these needs through a flexible Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) framework to compose and provide ; services on-demand; and ; • Outreach, information sharing, and partnership development that will sustain the IRSV concept going forward, ; providing state and local bridge management and preservation units a valuable tool to use in these tasks. ; The specific objectives of the project are to: ; • Enhance the National Bridge Inspection System (NBIS); ; • Provide opportunities for state and local DOTs to develop remote sensing and visualization applications for Bridge ; Management and Preservation Systems; ; • Provide temporal bridge condition tracking; ; • Enable agencies to make more precise damage assessments; and ; • Provide better and more systematic data interpretation through parallel data displays. ; This first Volume of Phase Two describes the development of the IRSV Outreach and Commercialization component for ; management review and understanding. Our intent is to ultimately establish a component of an on-going nationwide dialogue in ; order to upgrade bridge management and preservation systems in state and local transportation agencies.
