Abstract
Near-surface voids can develop into potholes and spalling causing potential driving hazards. A UAS with dual camera sensors can efficiently collect infrared (IR) and visual (RGB) images. This research studied the application of Computer Vision and Deep Learning to analyze UAV-collected multi-spectrum images to detect areas with voids beneath pavement surfaces.
