MISSION STATEMENT
"Pathway Services provides the best pavement condition and road asset data to our clients in order to support safe, smooth, and sustainable roadway networks."
Macrotexture Data Collection
Macrotexture Data Collection provides identification of changes in pavement surface height larger than 0.5mm on a network level. When combined with other data sets, macrotexture data collection can provide valuable pavement texture information with the intention of identifying areas with the potential for hydroplaning.
Right-of-Way Image Collection
The three forward-facing cameras create panoramic-like images that provide a high-resolution visual reference that is extremely important when evaluating the condition of the roadway infrastructure within the network.
360º Spherical Image Collection
Pathway Services 360° Spherical Imaging Subsystem integrates a 6-camera array, producing a spherical image export for enhanced asset inventory attribution. The 30 MP CMOS camera system allows for the identification for elements not visible from the Right-of-Way imaging system.
Industry Research
From the very beginning, Pathway Services has been a participant and supporter of many industry research projects and there is so much more on the way!
Third-Party Collaboration
Successful and optimized data collection in the pavement industry requires collaboration between entities such as auditors, universities, contract administration services, certification institutes, and more. Our customer support extends beyond each Pathway Services client and includes parties with influence over collected data. We’re grateful to build relationships with each of these supporting agencies and industry partners around the world.
Extended Warranty Service
24-hour response time! A difficult reality with technology is that will eventually be required, but our engineers are dedicated to getting you back up and running as quickly as possible.
Data Hosting
Data flexibility and redundancy could be our middle names. Let us handle the data storage and security so your agencies can focus on data analysis, network performance and safety.
DQMP Development and Support
Data quality is our top priority. We help establish and support DQMPs around the nation to assist each agency in meeting and exceeding all federal requirements through protocol, accuracy, and repeatability.
Ground Penetrating Radar Data Collection
Pathway Services offers mobile Ground Penetrating Radar surveys, capturing below-ground feature density variance to identify pavement layer thickness, roadway asset infrastructure, and sub-surface anomalies.
Skid Resistance Data Collection
When it comes to roadway safety, the value of understanding resistance to skid cannot be underestimated. Collecting skid data is time-consuming and demanding, so why not let us collect the data for you? We offer statewide skid data collection so you can make the decisions necessary to keep your motorists safe and on the road.
Texture Signature Data Collection (Coming Soon)
Pathway Services has pioneered a NEW, ground-breaking high-density 3-zone Texture Signature system that is changing the way the industry evaluates pavement texture. Pavement signatures combined with road geometries will help redefine “safe” and potentially help reduce texture-related incidents on your network.
Asset Extraction
Let us inventory your asset infrastructure from the ground up, capturing each roadway feature spatially, at a moment in time, and with full attribution for your maintenance, modeling, planning, and safety analysis needs.
LiDAR Data Collection
Pathway Services provides LiDAR mobile mapping data collection services using the highest quality LiDAR scanner and an integrated camera array for parallax-free colorization. The high performance of this survey grade single-scanner LIDAR subsystem provides the most precise and accurate data without the need for bore sighting calibration and limited post-processing requirements.
Pavement Condition Data Collection
Millions of miles of pavement and years of experience has made Pathway Services the industry leader in pavement condition collection services in the United States and beyond. Our automated pavement condition surveys are designed to adapt to each client’s unique requirements while maintaining set standards such as HPMS reporting and more.
Pavement Condition Reporting
HPMS pavement condition annual reports and other state-requested customizations for statewide pavement condition management are our specialty. Pathway Services supports 1/2 of the nation by providing simple interface solutions and single-click exports to non-proprietary .csv files.
