An error occurred while saving the comment The SBIR project phase I includes a marketing-research component and some marketing support. That said, the current approach involves paying a crew with one or more vehicles to conduct inspections manually.

An error occurred while saving the comment While actively performing their mission highway maintenance vehicles are exempt from minimum highway speed limits. An optimum solution would be to move at or near standard minimum speeds (commonly 40 miles per hour). However, if sensor research indicates that the sensor platform must pause to pull a grate to obtain a measurement, that pause would be necessary. While the project (especially phase 1) is focused on the technical aspects of using sensors to do an inspection developing technical specifications also is partr of the effort..

An error occurred while saving the comment The focus is on commercial freight, which may include carriers that operate under both long-haul interstate corridors and regional distribution networks; however, the focus should not be on those carriers that solely operate on intrastate under 500 operations.

An error occurred while saving the comment Phase I is intended to demonstrate a feasibility concept and the proposal should include a proposed methodology for evaluating the concept, whether that is through real-life data or a test-data set created for this purpose.

The SBIR project Phase I includes a marketing-research component and some marketing support that may answer these questions in detail. The main benefits of the proposed project are: 1. to get humans of the pavement in the right of way to reduce or eliminate roadside injuries and deaths among maintenance workers. 2. To provide useful, standard, and transferable information in a digital format that will support actionable maintenance and asset management decision-making. The main benefit of a new approach would not be an inspection production rate, although the ability to visit many catch basins per day would be a selling point.
