The total extension of Japanese road is over 1.25 million km. It is said that the development of efficient road maintenance and management system will become a mainstream of road related research works in the near future. This paper describes a road surface management system using a Mobile Mapping System (MMS). The proposed MMS, which consists of a GPS-Gyro/IMU combined navigation system, CCD cameras, and laser scanners on the top of the vehicle, can measure road 3D environment in high resolution and high accuracy. In this paper, road surface roughness survey and rut survey and road management method using the MMS and GIS (Geographic Information System) is described. The field survey result proves that the proposed method is valid and effective.
