Assessment of the Trimble MX7 for Use in Creation of Alignment Files for the Intelligent Compaction and Paver Mounted Thermal Profile Methods

Status:  Complete
Report Date:  05/28/2019

Summary:

MnDOT districts pilot tested a mobile imaging system, in conjunction with supporting software, to develop alignment and other data for the implementation of Intelligent Compaction (IC) and other geospatial needs, reducing the work of survey crews and their exposure to traffic. Researchers validated the Trimble MX7 system for use in collecting infrastructure information for creation of in-place alignment files for use with intelligent compaction and paver mounted thermal profiling technologies and also to provide the capability to collect other asset information along the roadway.
