INFRACOMS is a research project funded by CEDR
Significant progress has been made in the development of sensing technologies for asset data collection, and advanced data processing technologies to extract ever greater levels of insight from data. Whilst these technologies present an opportunity to improve asset management decisions, they also present a challenge for National Road Authorities as they seek to realise the benefits from these technologies.
INFRACOMS endeavors to bring clear understanding of the value and efficiency of these technologies in managing assets: interpreting the data in an efficient and robust manner to meet asset management objectives; integrating the data into visualisation and decision support tools; and evaluating the wider implications of adapting these technologies in terms of the cost, safety, social and environment components.
Supporting National Road Authorities to realise the benefits of new technologies
INFRACOMS will support National Road Authorities to transform their ability to realise the benefits of these new technologies.
The project will develop an open and accessible database of remote monitoring technology. It will create a flexible, sustainable and future-proofed appraisal toolkit to appraise emerging technologies, and provide an action plan to support the planning and implementation of these technologies within road administrations.
