Geospatial surveying specialist 5153 Yotta DCL now has a contract with 3548 Southampton City Council for road surface condition monitoring and is using its advanced laser technology. Yotta DCL is surveying 300km of the city's roads using its sophisticated ARAN survey vehicle which uses innovative laser scanning and precision GPS systems. These surveys are operating as part of a UK Government-specified programme called Surface Condition Assessment for the National Network of Roads (SCANNER). This will provide the city with accurate data that will allow the highway team to plan maintenance programmes and budgets more effectively. The highly specialised ARAN vehicle is an Anglo-Canadian development equipped with an advanced surface laser scanner that captures surface data with its precise location identified by a military-grade satellite positioning system. The accurate location information allows the survey data to be matched with other highways data such as records from on-foot highways defects surveys. Data captured by the ARAN vehicle shows defects such as wheelpath rutting, edge deterioration and cracks as well as the road geometry and longitudinal profile.
