Pavement Condition Assessment:
Map and diagnose your road network
NextRoad supports local authorities, metropolitan areas, intermunicipal communities, and infrastructure managers in carrying out pavement condition assessments. Thanks to our road mapping technology and automated pavement analysis, we help public stakeholders gain a better understanding of the condition of their road assets, prioritize road maintenance work, and optimize maintenance budgets.
In addition, our pavement condition assessment solution provides a reliable, geolocated, and actionable view of the road network’s condition.
What is a pavement condition assessment?
A pavement condition assessment is a technical evaluation of the condition of a municipal or intermunicipal road network. It involves analyzing pavements, intersections, and road assets in order to identify deterioration, assess service levels, and prioritize maintenance needs.
In addition, through field data collection and performance indicators, a pavement condition assessment provides a comprehensive and objective overview of road assets. It also helps local authorities plan maintenance work, optimize maintenance budgets, and improve the safety and durability of infrastructure.
Pavement Condition Assessment: Our 5-Step Methodology
SERVICE SCOPING AND CREATION OF THE ROAD NETWORK REFERENCE FRAMEWORK
First, we define the scope of the pavement condition assessment together with you:
- List of roads to be analyzed
- Accurate road network mapping
- Study objectives
- Expected level of detail
- Evaluation methodology
This initial step makes it possible to build a reliable reference framework that serves as the foundation for the entire assessment process.
DATA COLLECTION
Next, we collect road network imagery using onboard cameras installed on our survey vehicles. This technology enables the rapid coverage of large sections of roadway while minimizing on-site interventions.
The collected data notably includes:
- High-resolution pavement images
- Accurate geolocation data
- Road environment and contextual data
- Continuous road network surveys
This phase ensures consistent and up-to-date coverage of road assets.
ROAD CONDITION ASSESSMENT
Next, our teams rely on artificial intelligence and the LCPC ME52 methodology to assess road conditions.
We identify and annotate:
- Pavement deterioration
- Cracks
- Potholes
- Depressions and settlements
- Surface defects
- Road equipment and street assets
- Road infrastructure components
This step enables the creation of a comprehensive and actionable georeferenced database.
ROAD NETWORK RATING AND MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS
Afterward, we provide a turnkey solution including:
- Aggregated road network ratings
- Prioritization of road deterioration
- Road maintenance recommendations
- Budget estimates
- Intervention priorities
The goal is to help road asset managers make fast and data-driven decisions based on objective information. In addition, our experts support your teams so they can monitor the evolution of road assets independently.
DELIVERY OF THE ASSESSMENT AND ONBOARDING TO THE MAORIE WEB PLATFORM
Finally, we present a detailed summary report including:
- The overall condition of the road network
- Deterioration maps
- Road quality indicators
- Maintenance recommendations
- Maintenance priorities
We then support your teams in getting started with our MAORIE web platform, making it easier to monitor the road network and plan road maintenance operations.
