Automated Path Tracking and Mapping for Economical, Real-Time, and Knowledge-Based Roller Control in Pavement Compaction Operations: Phase I: Algorithm Development

If successful, the outcome of this research will help state DOT pavement management offices better monitor and control the quality of the pavement operations undertaken by contractors. It addresses the issues in places where global positioning systems (GPS) signal could be a problem to the existing IC devices. Given the low cost, the proposed technology has higher promise for market penetration.
