Abstract:

This research supported Caltrans Office of Land Surveys’ (OLS) update of Chapter 15 of the Caltrans Survey Manual and creation of the Caltrans MTLS Guidelines document. In addition, the research contributed to firmware/software updates on both the Trimble MX8 and Riegl VMX1HA MTLS systems, the integration of a Ladybug 5+ 360-degree camera to the MX8 system, establishment of the Geospatial Technology Proving Ground (GTPG) for MTLS target spacing experimentation, and MTLS target spacing research. The Advanced Highway Maintenance and Construction Technology (AHMCT) researchers worked closely with OLS as well as Caltrans districts on this project. OLS and district surveyors contributed the majority of the Caltrans MTLS Guidelines content. The GTPG provides a vital resource for evaluation of future mobile mapping technologies.
