Pavement Querying Systems for Public Works  Paper Text

Defining Issue: Pavement information querying and analysis were almost impossible due to graphic displays and large databases. GIS Solution: MIS developed a user-friendly interface for end users so that they can do pavement information analysis and customer service from the interface. Methodology: The Pavement Querying System (PQS) allows end users to query pavement information by road name, road number, road class, maintenance area, pavement length, pavement width, pavement rating, date, wildcard, and any combination of the above. The end users can also use the PQS to do pavement information analysis and statistics, routing, networking, and other spatial analysis. The purpose of this paper is to review the PQS developments, technical challenges encountered, and lessons learned. Software: The PQS used ArcInfo, dBASE, and UNIX C shell scripts on Solaris 2.4.
