Dynamic GIS-based Pavement Condition Tracking
NORTHWEST GIS USERS GROUP CONFERENCE – OCTOBER 20, 2011
Pavement Management
BIG PICTURE• Save time and money
through more effective management of road assets.
• Enable graphical visualization and analysis of pavement conditions.
• Map your street system• Keep inventory• Track work histories• Attach photos, plans, etc.• Create reports
NORTHWEST GIS USERS GROUP CONFERENCE – OCTOBER 20, 2011
Methodology
• Many “Schools of Thought” in Pavement Inventory– “Do Nothing” Plan– Calculated Pavement Management Plan – “Do Something!”
• PCI (Pavement Condition Index)– Grade represents a scale of current pavement
condition– Usually rated as a percentage – 0 to 100

The cost to repair a roadway becomes greater with time. The rate of deterioration is exponential

Mountain Home – Case Study• Doesn’t want to implement additional systems or new
software tools.• Integrate the street department’s information with the
city’s GIS system.• Share with department heads and other departments
city-wide.• ASTM International – PCI methodology• Steps for PCI Calculation:
– Inventory Roads– Come up with raw deduct values– Determine final deduction value– Subtract from 100 to get final PCI
NORTHWEST GIS USERS GROUP CONFERENCE – OCTOBER 20, 2011
Inventory Roads
• Measure road cracking in the field– Severity – High,
Medium, Low– Extent – Percentage
of sample that has covered in each type of distress
NORTHWEST GIS USERS GROUP CONFERENCE – OCTOBER 20, 2011
Calculate Raw Deduct Values
• Use charts to find raw deduct values for each distress based on its extent and severity
