BETA - to update the current Pavement Management Program (PMP)

“The Town of Maynard has secured the services of BETA Group Inc. to conduct a reinspection of the Town’s roadway network utilizing lidar technology starting October 2nd thru October 13th to update the current Pavement Management Program (PMP) with current pavement conditions. The lidar sensor will be mounted to BETA’s Hybrid Rav4 vehicle to conduct the inspections autonomously (see attached photograph) for each Town maintained roadway. As each roadway is driven, pavement defects and distresses such as cracking, depressions and potholes are detected by the lidar sensor and stored within a point cloud. Upon completion of the pavement inspections, AI machine learning technology is run to generate industry standard 0-100 scores to be assigned to each roadway segment (typically intersection to intersection). Deliverables for this project include pavement condition reports, backlog summary, GIS maps, forecast models and an interactive GIS based online dashboard containing imagery captured as part of the inspection. Ultimately, this data will be leveraged to assist in future roadway improvement planning efforts.”
