Pave-Scanner, the best infrastructure and pavement surface inspection system currently available on the market
The Automated Pavement Mobile Mapping System (PMMS) delivered to Asco-Daito
ASCO-DAITO has taken delivery of the Pave-Scanner Pavement Mobile mapping system, the first commercially available, true 360 degree, infrastructure and pavement surface inspection/classifications system from Siteco S.R.L, Italy.
CONFIGURATION
The configuration of the system delivered includes two Pavemetrics LCMS (Laser Crack Measurement System) sensors, two 3-D laser profiling sensors, a high performance rackmount controller unit, the popular Ladybug 5 spherical camera from Point Grey FLIR Imaging Solutions and a pair of high resolution frame grabber boards.
The software provides complete functionality for mission planning, data acquisition, post-processing, quality control and defect extraction.
SCOPE
Engineered to be flexible, Pavemetrics’ LCMS technology has been adapted to the inspection needs of a wide variety of infrastructure including: road pavement condition evaluation, railway condition evaluation, detection of foreign object debris (FOD) at airports, and high-speed-train-tunnel vault lining inspection.
INTEGRATION
The SITECO Road-Scanner platform is fully integrated with the renowned Pavemetrics LCMS vision system technology, and represents the most cost effective, state-of-the-art, high performance infrastructure and pavement surface inspection system. The system collects Asset and Pavement databases in a single survey campaign, providing big advantages for their contextual management. The complete 3D lidar and imagery infrastructure survey, with millimeter resolution pavement inspection provides a comprehensive analysis of all asset maintenance conditions. All data are accurately geo-referenced and managed in a single environment with Siteco’s powerful software.
