THE USE OF SMART PHONES TO ESTIMATE ROAD ROUGHNESS: A CASE STUDY IN TURKEY

Year 2018, Volume: 13 Issue: 3, 247 - 257, 23.07.2018

Abstract

     Previous
studies have shown that road surface conditions are an important factor for
road quality. To provide quality on road surface, it should be observed
steadily and repaired as necessarily. There are many process to determine road
surface condition. Using a smart phone to collect data is an alternative and
simple application because of it’s low cost, wider population coverage property
and easy utilization. This paper explores the utilization of Roadroid, a simple
android application, as a low cost vehicle-based solution for road surface
condition monitoring with using sensors from smartphones. In the scope of this
study, site experiments have been conducted to collect data using acceleration
and GPS properties of a smartphone in a specific (passenger car) vehicle type.
This method was evaluated with 3259 km urban and rural road data collected from
the site experiments in Turkey, and it was seen from the results that average
84.4% of Turkish roads have good, 7.9% have satisfactory, 3.8 have
unsatisfactory and 3.8% have poor road roughness conditions. It shows that
approximately 4% of Turkish roads need maintenance urgently. Also experimental
study results confirm that Roadroid have a great potential to evaluate road
surface roughness condition correctly, even under obstacle like, potholes,
manholes and decelerating marks.
