This report describes a new imaging technique applied in the pavement distress survey on airport runways. The Digital Highway Data Vehicle (DHDV) developed at the University of Arkansas was used to conduct the runway pavement distress survey for Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport (HAIA) in October 2001 and September 2004. DHDV is a multi-function survey device designed to collect and analyze various data sets on highway and airport pavements. The pavement imaging sub-system in the DHDV successfully accomplished the survey tasks for the airport runways. It is faster, safer and more consistent than manual surveys. Analysis results between the two surveys in 2001 and 2004 are presented in the paper which shows the trend of the deterioration of the runway pavement in HAIA and the effectiveness of the higher resolution of the imaging system at 1-mm. / Supplementary Notes: Sponsored by Mack-Blackwell Transportation Center, Fayetteville, AR. / Availability Note: Order this product from NTIS by: phone at 1-800-553-NTIS (U.S. customers); (703)605-6000 (other countries); fax at (703)605-6900; and email at orders@ntis.gov.
