Description
Summary:The Geographic Information System (GIS) is a useful technology for managing spatial databases, which are the basis of the Pavement Management System. When creating a pavement management system in GIS, the needs and available resources of individual road authorities should be considered. This paper describes establishment of a simple database management system for small city administrations. The database was created by manual collection of pavement condition data at several unclassified roads in the city of Osijek. Based on collected data, the system calculates the PSI index and compares pavement condition.
