AUTOMATED MANHOLE COVER REMOVAL USING SELF-DRIVING VEHICLE
The use of a self-driving vehicle to automatically find manholes, and for each remove the manhole cover from the manhole, and thereafter put the manhole cover back in position on the manhole. In some embodiments, while the manhole cover is removed, the self-driving vehicle is used to automatically place a tool above or within the manhole. Accordingly, a self-driving vehicle can automatically inspect, repair, or maintain manholes that are positioned in roadways. The data can then automatically be gathered without human intervention.
