Use of Traffic Speed Lidar in Road Assessment

This report presents the results of an investigation of the use of Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) for the measurement and assessment of road infrastructure assets. The study focuses on the automation of asset assessment, describing the development and application of algorithms for the location and measurement of roadside barriers, bridges and gantries. The algorithms draw upon a method called LIDAR slicing to allow the large LIDAR data set to be broken down into manageable lengths while still containing the information required for automated analysis.
