• Transverse Profiling System

    Transverse Profiling System

    The Ames Transverse Profiling System is the latest innovation to complete your asset management data collection. It collects the entire lane width as you drive, and can be used to measure many roadway features, including:

    • Rutting
    • Lane markings
    • Visual crack measurement
    • Edge Drop-Off

     

    The system uses a single laser and high speed camera to capture 3D transverse profile data at highway speeds. Capable of being either integrated with our High Speed Profiler or used as a standalone unit, it easily installs onto your host vehicle making it one of the most cost effective solutions for pavement condition data collection.

    System Overview:

    • Portable system easily installs onto host vehicle using standard mounting hardware
    • One compact sensor unit capable of covering entire lane 13′ width (4m)
    • Uses a standard ruggedized laptop computer for data collection and analysis
    • Comprehensive analysis software for post collection viewing and analyzing of pavement condition data
    • Different systems designed to meet your needs & budget
