In order to effectively maintain and manage the municipal roads, it is highly required to develop the practical road survey technology. The authors are conducting joint research with a British road management company aiming at the introduction of their cutting-edge road diagnosis technology to Japan. In this paper, the feasibility study of their method for the Japanese municipal road is shown. Image data of more than 60% of roads and surrounding road assets in the Yokosuka city have been obtained. The adaptability to the situation in Japan and the distinctive features of their scheme are demonstrated by comparing the results by our proposed method and conventional road survey using the survey vehicle.
