Visualizing Bridge Inspection with 2D+1 Software
A true challenge in the digital age is the fusion of qualitative and quantitative information for meaningful visualizations and interpretations. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the inspection of bridge structures, where multi-piece data is collected for repetitive structural elements with the purpose of differentiating data content for condition assessment. Inspection by experienced personnel remains a critical and necessary time-consuming element. A true 4D BIM approach remains a challenge in the field due to hardware requirements and user skill demands. A new 2D+1 approach has been implemented with a software system on lightweight digital tablets designed to annotate plan documents and photos. The software captures quantitative and qualitative observations (e.g. photos and written observations) referenced spatially to 2D drawing/photos of the structure with near real-time multi-user synchronization. A cloud-based system provides a near real-time replica of the document to most accessible web browsers. Quantitative, as well as qualitative data can be analyzed programmatically together using spreadsheet software or developed into more advanced visualizations through database querying techniques. The software already has been used to improve the efficiency and quality of data collection on numerous bridge inspections across the U.S.
