MCV Infrastructure Monitoring Functional Area

Description

'MCV Infrastructure Monitoring' monitors the condition of pavement, bridges, tunnels, associated hardware, and other transportation–related infrastructure (e.g., culverts). It includes vehicle–based sensors that directly monitor the infrastructure, communications that allow roadway–based infrastructure monitoring sensors to be controlled and read, and data communications that allows collected infrastructure condition information to be reported back to a center.

Functional Requirements

IDRequirement
01The maintenance and construction vehicle shall collect infrastructure data from on–board sensors relating to the physical characteristics of the roadway infrastructure, including pavement, bridges, culverts, signs, etc.
02The maintenance and construction vehicle shall collect infrastructure data from sensors located along the roadway relating to the physical characteristics of the roadway infrastructure, including pavement, bridges, culverts, signs, etc.
03The maintenance and construction vehicle shall provide control signals to infrastructure monitoring sensors located at the roadway.
04The maintenance and construction vehicle shall send current condition of pavement, bridges, culverts, signs, and other roadway infrastructure as measured by on–board sensors or read from infrastructure–based sensors to the center. The data may include raw data or images (e.g., photo logs) that indicate the current status of the infrastructure.
05The maintenance and construction vehicle shall respond to control information from the center to allow remote operation of the on–board vehicle systems.
06The maintenance and construction vehicle shall provide infrastructure sensor equipment operational status to the center.
