TRB Webinar: How to Certify and Validate Pavement Surface Condition Data
Does your organization know how to certify and validate pavement surface condition data based on mapping sensor technologies? TRB will conduct a webinar on Wednesday, June 10, 2020, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM Eastern to discuss challenges and solutions from actual pavement condition projects. In pavement management systems, accurate and precise condition data are essential for making decisions about maintenance and rehabilitation projects. Presenters will identify how to reconcile differences between old and new data collection technologies and describe how to develop performance prediction models. They will also explore different certification and validation methods, including a ground reference survey, fully automated surveys, and transverse profile. This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committee on Pavement Management Systems and the Standing Committee on Pavement Condition Evaluation. Some registrants will need to pay $95 to attend this webinar. Sign into MyTRB.org to view registration information.
