Abstract
Efficient road management requires collecting and analyzing various geospatial data related to transportation corridors. Mobile Mapping Systems (MMS), integrated with GNSS/INS units, RGB cameras, and LiDAR technology, enable the collection of geo-tagged imagery and 3D point cloud data across roadway networks. Acquired data helps in the inventory and management of transportation networks. However, users face challenges in accessing high data volumes, especially when considering hardware and software requirements. To address these challenges, the Purdue research team developed a web portal to efficiently store and provide easy access to geospatial data collected along Indiana’s transportation corridors. The web portal provides an easy-to-use interface that allows end-users to manipulate and visualize data without requiring specialized tools. In addition, the Purdue research team developed several functionalities, which are integrated into the web portal to improve transportation infrastructure management.
