RAVs by WDM: High-Speed Insight for Smarter Asset Management
WDM’s Road Assessment Vehicles (RAVs) are engineered to capture surface condition data at speed, scale, and resolution. Built in-house and trusted on national and local networks across the UK and internationally, they provide the foundation for effective asset condition monitoring and decision-making.
Each RAV is equipped with high-speed cameras, precision lasers, and surface sensors – capturing cracks, rutting, potholes, and roughness in real-time. Combined with GPS and geometry data, the vehicle delivers a full digital profile of the road surface in a single pass.
Designed for performance in real-world conditions
- High-speed data capture with HD imaging and surface profiling
- Single-pass efficiency for network-scale asset data collection
- Precision laser and sensor integration for rutting, cracking, and geometry
- Built-in video and GPS synchronisation
- Durable chassis and engineering for consistent, real-world performance
When to use a RAV
- Network wide surface condition monitoring
- Targeted site investigation prior to planned maintenance
- Supporting lifecycle planning and treatment design
- Capturing condition data to inform scheme identification
- Supplementing other survey techniques like SCANNER, TRACS, and visual surveys
