不断增加的桥梁检查费用是明尼苏达州交通部（MnDOT）关注的问题。使用无人驾驶飞行器（UAV）可以帮助减轻这些成本并提高桥梁检查的质量。无人机桥梁检查示范项目的总体目标是研究利用无人机技术的有效性，因为它可以应用于桥梁安全检查。项目团队在明尼苏达州的四座桥梁上研究了这项技术。项目团队评估了无人机的有效性，因为它可以应用于基于无人机现场结果的桥梁检查。各种无人机功能被用来评估当前的技术，因为它们与桥梁检查的使用有关。本研究详细介绍了潜在使用无人机辅助桥梁检查的优势和挑战，分析了当前和未来的无人机技术，因为它们与桥梁检查有关，并分析了当前和未来的技术如何遵守国家桥梁检查标准。
The increasing costs of bridge inspections are a concern for the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT). The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) may help alleviate these costs and improve the quality of bridge inspections. The overall goal of the UAV Bridge Inspection Demonstration Project was to study the effectiveness of utilizing UAV technology as it could apply to bridge safety inspections. The project team investigated the technology on four bridges located throughout Minnesota. The project team evaluated the UAVs effectiveness as it could apply to bridge inspections based on UAV field results. Various UAV capabilities were utilized to evaluate current technologies as they relate to use in bridge inspections. This study details the advantages and challenges of potentially using UAVs to aid in bridge inspection, an analysis of current and future UAV technologies as they relate to bridge inspection, and an analysis describing how current and future technologies adhere to the National Bridge Inspection Standards.
