Transportation Infrastructure Asset Monitoring through the Industrial Internet-of Things

The Internet-of-Things (IoT) is a technology that has been growing since its inception in 2009 and as wireless technology becomes more ubiquitous, so are its applications. Even though this technology started with consumer applications, it has entered many industrial applications in factories, utilities, and smart cities. Recently these applications are being referred as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The research goal of this study is to explore the current status and viability of the IIoT technology for the purpose of asset management of transportation infrastructure or the actual built infrastructure distributed along the highway system in the state of Missouri. This research project was framed by MoDOT in two phases. Phase 1 focus was on preliminary research to assess the readiness of IIoT for initial implementation on the transportation highway system (such as bridges, pavements, retaining walls, signs, etc.). Phase 2 will implement a pilot study on a limited number of structures to physically evaluate the technology. This report is the result of Phase 1, which summarizes the findings during this period.
