Abstract– Transportation agencies are in urgent need for low-cost, reliable alternatives to improve their data collection practices. Various manual methods for collecting data of cross-slope, road cross-section etc. are extremely accurate but time consuming. As time required for data collection through manual methods is more and interruption to traffic also takes place thus, this methods are infeasible for large-scale project database. Survey techniques using Total Station and Hand held GPS equipment can provide accurate results, but have disadvantage similar to those of the manual method. Now-a-days various researchers have developed such as Road-Surface Profiler (RSP), Road surface sensor, Low-cost mobile device to find out various parameters of road cross-section.. Also, Road Surface Profiler (RSP) device was used to measure super-elevation at a curve. Proposed paper focuses on introducing an innovation way to measure existing pavement geometric parameters, especially cross-slope, Super-elevation, Unevenness, etc.
