SENSORS FOR INFRASTRUCTURE ASSESSMENT

The overwhelming problem of maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) of the national infrastructure is noted, and the physical data (inventory data; condition data; and performance) for supporting M&R decisions are discussed. The numerous sensor, data acquisition, and computer interface technologies which have the potential for rapid and efficient data collection are noted. Issues facing technological innovation (motivation, impact of technology, technology performance specifications, and technology adaptions) are discussed. A strategy for the future is proposed. The proposed educationsl program is outlned.
