MCM Infrastructure Monitoring Functional Area

Description

'MCM Infrastructure Monitoring' monitors the condition of pavement, bridges, tunnels, associated hardware, and other transportation–related infrastructure (e.g., culverts). It monitors the infrastructure, collecting data from both fixed and vehicle–based sensors. In addition to specialized infrastructure monitoring sensors, it also monitors the broader population of equipped vehicles for vertical acceleration data and other situation data that may be used to determine current pavement condition.

Functional Requirements

IDRequirement
01The center shall remotely control and collect data from fixed infrastructure monitoring sensors that monitor vibration, stress, temperature, surface continuity, and other condition measures.
02The center shall monitor maintenance vehicle–based mobile sensors and data logging devices that collect information on current infrastructure conditions.
03The center shall remotely collect data from vehicle probes using short range communications equipment and process this data to identify potential pavement degradation, potholes, and other rough or adverse road surface conditions.
04The center shall process the collected infrastructure information and use it to monitor the condition of pavement, bridges, tunnels, associated hardware, and other transportation–related infrastructure.
05The center shall collect current maintenance and repair needs from the asset management system and correlate this data with data collected through infrastructure monitoring systems.
06The center shall provide current infrastructure conditions information to the asset management system.
07The center shall report infrastructure repair needs to the maintenance center personnel.
