PYTHON-BASED ROAD PAVEMENT CONDITION ASSESSMENT AND MAINTENANCE PRIORITY RANKING SYSTEM

​

2 of 10

WHY PAVEMENTS DETERIORATE

• Repeated traffic loading

• Environmental exposure and ageing

• Water infiltration

• Inadequate drainage

• Delayed maintenance

• Reduced safety and ride quality

• Higher vehicle operating costs

• Faster deterioration

• Higher rehabilitation costs

• Difficult maintenance planning

​

WHY IT MATTERS

ROUGHNESS

​

​

CRACKING

​

RUTTING

​

POOR DRAINAGE

​

Surface fractures

Water accumulation

Uneven riding surface

Localised cavities

Wheel-path deformation

Roughness

Drainage

TOTAL WEIGHT = 100%

MATHEMATICAL MODEL

Distress Score =

0.25(Crack) + 0.25(Pothole) + 0.20(Rutting)\n+ 0.20(Roughness) + 0.10(Drainage)

Condition Score = 100 − Distress Score

SEVERITY NORMALIZATION

• Cracking: crack percentage, limited to 0–100.

• Potholes: pothole area ÷ road surface area × 100.

• Rutting: rut depth ÷ 25 mm × 100.

• Roughness & drainage: (rating − 1) ÷ 4 × 100.

ROADVISION PRO | LIVE WEB PLATFORM

Browser-based pavement analysis dashboard

• Upload road survey data: CSV, XLSX or XLS

• View condition scores and Good / Fair / Poor / Critical classes

• Compare sections through dashboard charts and analytics

• Review ranked maintenance actions and road inventory

• Export an Excel summary or PDF report

PYTHON NOTEBOOK | GOOGLE COLAB

The submitted code performs the same core analysis.

01

Load & validate the CSV dataset

02

Calculate five distress severity indicators

03

Apply weighted condition score and classification

04

Generate maintenance recommendations and priority ranks

05

Export final_road_pavement_analysis.csv

COLAB OUTPUT: DOWNLOAD FINAL CSV

Both routes use the project’s weighted scoring logic.
