Description
Summary:Road authorities are concerned with maintaining the road condition at a high level of service to minimise user and agency costs. For this purpose, they have to monitor the road condition regularly. Pavement condition monitoring with automated data collection vehicles is costly. One emerging technology that has been widely applied in transportation is connected vehicles. They have various sensors to monitor their ambient condition and transfer the data to infrastructure or other vehicles. They could be employed as a cost-effective method in pavement condition evaluation which has been taken for granted. This study aims to review research studies investigating the potential of connected vehicles collected data in assessing pavement conditions. Moreover, the sensors used in these vehicles, data types collected, and analysis methods utilised are being scrutinised. It is concluded that the connected vehicles have excellent potential to be applied as a crowd-sourced-based and cost-effective approach in pavement data evaluation.
