• Abstract:
  Recent advances in Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) technologies have tremendous potential of improving the reliability and efficiency of inspections of transportation infrastructures, such as bridges, highways, railroads, construction projects, high mast light poles, etc. Two major challenges in the adoption of UAS operations for NJDOT transportation infrastructures are: regulatory compliance with the FAA regulated airspaces, and the absence of comprehensive operational procedures and guidelines for performing the UAS missions.
