Drone-assisted assessment of road transportation and exploitation conditions
Abstract
Drone-assisted assessment of road transportation and exploitation conditions
Incoming article date: 29.03.2018This article focuses on a method of drone-assisted assessment of road transportation and exploitation conditions. The nature and types of defects to the road surface and their effect on calculated speed of motion are registered based on the inclusion of a private coefficient. This coefficient is calculated based on the presence, amount, and relative area of motion. The algorithm of this method is implemented as a software programme, which allows to increase operational accuracy of the calculation. Additionally, the developed method allows to implement expedited assessment of an automobile road's transportation and exploitation conditions.
