The work proposed herein centers around a method to observe and measure the state of distress (including crack depth) in asphaltic and portland cement concrete runway pavements The method of this proposed work employs a video image processing procedure that uses the video image ant associated software ant firmware to capture the distressed site ant quantify the distress through pattern recognition principles Crack depth will be established with ground penetration radar techniques and synchronized with the video imaging.Anticipated Results/Potential Commercial Applications Of Results:The results of this work will supply an automated method of processing information (video images and radar signatures) to quantify surface and subsurface distresses which will be a significant and useful tool to the pavement community for identification and repair of distress in pavements
