This study addresses the problems of bridge inspection when utilizing inspection robots in order to realize efficient maintenance of aging bridges in Japan against the background of lack of skilled workers in the field of civil engineering. The approach is from the computer vision field.
In this paper, we have summarized the current bridge inspection methods, proposed a "bridge inspection method utilizes 3D data" that utilizes inspection robots and computer vision, and summarized the expected application effects. Based on the verification results of the proposed method, the requirements for inspection robots and image management software are summarized. In addition, we will also discuss the problems when linking the inspection results of the proposed method to the national transportation data platform based on the utilization of 3D data.
