Improving the Quality of Highway Profile Measurement
The goal of the proposed pooled fund study “is to continue and extend the work of TPF-5(063) and TPF-5(354)”, which was led by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and South Dakota DOT, respectively. The project will enable states and FHWA to: (1) identify data integrity and quality issues associated with measuring and analyzing pavement profiles, (2) suggest approaches to addressing identified problems, (3) initiate and monitor projects to address identified problems, (4) disseminate results, and (5) assist in solution deployment. Objectives are: (1) deliver sample procurement specifications and maintenance guidelines, (2) direct and support development and maintenance of pavement profile analysis software, (3) implement criteria for profile verification that include emerging technologies (e.g., low-speed profilers, start and stop profilers, and non-inertial profilers), (4) verify pavement profile reference devices, (5) develop and deliver profiler operation and profile analysis training, (6) implement methods for maximizing the use of pavement profiles for network, project, and forensic analysis, with a focus on cutting-edge methodologies, and (7) provide technical support for the Road Profile Users’ Group and conduct annual face-to-face meetings in conjunction with the group.
