THE DEVELOPMENT OF A FULL DIGITAL AND NETWORKABLE MULTI-MEDIA BASED HIGHWAY INFORMATION SYSTEM, PHASE I. TECHNICAL REPORT
This report covers the development of a Multimedia Based Highway Information System (MMHIS). MMHIS extends the capabilities of current photo logging facilities. MMHIS can be applied in a state highway department environment. This MMHIS utilizes state-of-the-art technologies in digital video, high-speed networking, and the video server. A data-synchronization algorithm was developed to dynamically display digital video frames along with traditional engineering data sets that contain information such as as-built data, pavement condition and performance, traffic safety, geometric features, and other infrastructure data. Geo-referencing capabilities were also developed into MMHIS, so that multimedia data is location-referenced in the databases.
