Abstract:

Roads play a significant role in connecting cities to transport goods and people. Heavy usage requires constant monitoring and predictive maintenance. A digital twin is a technology aimed at representing the current state of an object and performing what-if analysis based on sensor dataflow. To reduce an error probability, gathering additional data is proficient. This paper introduces a concept for damage detection including drone inspection as a digital twin of the road system reaction. The inspection task is automatically established for the suspected damaged area.
