• Abstract:
  This report summarizes important content and operational details about five different materials and pavement databases currently used by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). These databases include the Pavement Management Information System, the Maintenance Management Information System (MMIS), The Road Life Database (RL), The Texas Reference Marker Database, and SiteManager. ; Information about each database was largely gained from internal TxDOT literature and from in-person interviews with expert TxDOT staff. Knowledge of the contents, operation, and updating procedures of these databases can be instrumental in evaluating each as a data source for a proposed materials-performance-monitoring database.
