Ministère des Transports et de la Mobilité durable du Québec: Pavement Marking Durability Measurement System
The webinar will be presented in French, with English captioning available.
The Ministère des Transports et de la Mobilité durable (MTMD) has developed an automated pavement marking durability measurement system that could replace the labour-intensive annual inspection of 90,000 kilometres of line markings on provincial highways. The key elements of the system are instrumented vehicles that collect line marking images and location data, and an artificial intelligence model that classifies line markings into five categories ranging from new to barely visible. The system can simultaneously detect up to four longitudinal marking lines of any colour or design, meaning that it needs only one pass to scan the lines on 98% of highways. During testing, the system received positive ratings for its agreement with individual experts, and for the statistical robustness of results for runs made with different vehicles and on different days.
