Comparative Assessment of Using Visual and Close Range Photogrammetry Techniques to Evaluate Rigid Pavement Surface Distresses
Abstract: AbstractThe main task of this study is to introduce the close range photogrammetric approach for evaluation of rigid pavement surface condition, and compare the findings with the traditional visual evaluation technique. The visual inspection was conducted by walking through the roadway and evaluating the pavement surface distress visually. As for the photogrammetric fieldwork, it starts with generation of ground control points around the area of distress. A total station device …
