Abstract

Road maintenance and the early detection of road defects rely on routine pavement inspections. While advanced 3D laser profiling systems have the capability to automatically identify certain types of distress such as cracks and ruts, more complex pavement damage, including patches, often require manual identification. To address this limitation, this study proposes an automated patch detection system that employs object detection techniques. The results demonstrate the ability of object detection models to accurately identify patches in laser profiling images, indicating that the proposed approach has the capability to significantly enhance automation in visual inspection processes. This has the potential for significant cost reduction in inspections, improved safety conditions during checks, and acceleration of the current manual inspection processes.
