Use of Vehicle Noise for Roadways, Bridge, and Infrastructure Health Monitoring: Workshop Summary Report

On August 20–21, 2013, at the Turner–Fairbank Highway Research Center in McLean, Virginia, the Federal Highway Administration’s Exploratory Advanced Research Program convened a 2-day workshop entitled, “Use of Vehicle Noise for Roadways, Bridge, and Infrastructure Health Monitoring.” The objectives of the workshop were to discuss the possibilities of using vehicle noise for roadways, bridge, and infrastructure health monitoring and to use a noise-based data collection system that could assess infrastructure for proactive and efficient infrastructure maintenance and operations, higher infrastructure safety, and less traffic congestion. Presentation topics included: Asset Management, Vehicle Noise and Vibration, Acoustic-Based Sensing and Imaging, Connected Vehicles, and Decision Support System for Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System Technologies.
