• Abstract:
  The Integrated Remote Sensing and Visualization System (IRSV) is being designed to accommodate the needs of today’s Bridge ; Engineers at the state and local level from the following aspects: ;  Better understanding and enforcement of a complex inspection process that can bridge the gap between evidence ; gathering and decision making through the implementation of ontological knowledge engineering system; ;  Aggregation, representation and fusion of complex multi-layered heterogeneous data (i.e. infrared imaging, aerial ; photos and ground-mounted LiDAR etc.) with domain application knowledge to support an understandable process for ; decision-making; ;  Robust visualization techniques with large-scale analytical and interactive visualizations that support users' decision ; making; and ;  Integration of these needs through the flexible Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) framework to compose and provide ; services on-demand. ; 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 BMS; ;  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, based on a more complete, seven-volume set of reports, describes the development of the IRSV to date as a ; summary for management review and understanding. Our intent is to ultimately establish a component of an on-going ; nationwide dialogue and upgrade of bridge management systems in state and local transportation agencies.
