| Summary | Published in May 2003 IOT SERIAL No. 92-57-286，94pp. All the characteristics and attributes of the infrastructures and traffic control facilities of the existing highway are stored in the highway inventory database, which provides basic information for the planning, management and maintenance of transportation system. The Institutes of Transportation have conducted a series of projects to develop a highway inventory data collection system with the photologging technology since 2000, which is an integration of digital camera, digital odometer, and Global Position System (GPS) receiver. With the establishment of the highway inventory database, the highway inventory data can be managed and maintained in a more efficient and effective way. In 2001, a study was conducted for the storage of the highway inventory data and the images of roadside environment of 400 kilometers provincial and county highway in the North Taiwan into the highway inventory database. In this study, the suitability of the system in hardware, software and interface were tested. The system is then modified to upgrade its function and manipulability based on the results of this study. The purpose of this study is to conduct a series of field survey of the highway system in four regions of Taiwan based on the system developed by the IOT. The establishment of the highway inventory databases for the provincial and county highway in Taiwan will be completed in these four years. An inventory database of the 1200 kilometers provincial and county highway in the north region of Taiwan was completed in this fiscal year. |
