Support Road Survey

Road Survey Vehicle

ROMDASTM has been developed as a cost effective and modular system designed to collect road and asset data using any vehicle

ROMDAS is a modular system developed to collect asset and pavement information using locally sourced road survey vehicles. Whether a private consultant, government department or research institution, ROMDAS’ design evolved with technology to offer great flexibility and ease of use to accurately measure a variety of pavement data quickly.

The Central ROMDAS system includes the core hardware components, odometer, interfaces and software licenses for collecting survey data. You can then add modules to this Central system for recording additional datasets. This innovative design can be installed on almost any vehicle. The system is designed to enable users to tailor it with modules specific to the needs of their projects, without having to spend their budget on components they do not need.

The interactive image below details the different modules available for the ROMDAS system. Hover your cursor over a specific module in the image to learn more.

Pavement Condition Survey

Add-on Modules

ROMDAS offers low-cost devices for use in tough and unpaved conditions as well as the latest in laser scanning technology for accurate analysis of highways or rural roads

Road Survey

Laser Profilometer

Profile, Roughness and Macrotexture

The ROMDAS Laser Profilometer is an exceptionally portable system used when high accuracy roughness data on paved roads is required.

Pavement Condition Survey

LCMS Module

Multifunctional Pavement Profiling

ROMDAS LCMS utilizes the latest advance laser scanning technology from INO/Pavemetrics to collect high accuracy 3D profiles of the road surface.

FOD Detection

ROMDAS LFOD

Automated Foreign Object Detection

The ROMDAS LFOD system uses Pavemetrics LCMS hardware and latest algorithms for rapid FOD and pavement condition surveys at Airports.

Pavement Condition Survey

Right of Way View Video

Right of Way, Mobile Mapping

The Right of Way Video Logging module is used to create a visual record of the road right-of-way (ROW) to collect information about road asset and inventory.

Road Survey

Pavement View Video

Pavement Surface

The Pavement View Video Logging module creates a record of the pavement surface for visual condition assessment. ROMDAS is an accredited iRAP inspection system.

Road Survey

Transverse Profiler Logger

Transverse Profile and Rutting

The ROMDAS TPL is used to measure the transverse profile of the road, utilising 15 high quality single point laser sensors to output industry standard transverse profile.

Road Survey

Bump Integrator

Roughness

This Class 3 response type meter has been widely implemented over the last few decades and is a great low cost option for measuring roughness and calculating IRI.

Pavement Condition Survey

GPS and Geometry

Georeferencing and Geometry Data

GPS data can be used to establish the road center line or simultaneously referenced to other datasets collected by a ROMDAS system. Easy integration with GIS mapping software.

Pavement Condition Survey

HR DMI

High Accuracy Distance/Speed

The High Resolution Distance Measurement Instrument (HR DMI) is used in situations where extremely accurate (< 0.1 m) distance measurements are required.

Data Acquisition Software

ROMDAS Data Acquisition Software interfaces between the survey computer and ROMDAS hardware to collect and analyse data

ROMDAS Data Acquisition Software interfaces between the survey computer and ROMDAS hardware to collect and analyse pavement data. It is supplied with the central ROMDAS System and used in the vehicle for recording and processing the data into Microsoft Access databases. The software will display real-time status for all modules during surveying. ROMDAS Data Acquisition software offers useful features such as location referencing, event/condition rating and travel time surveying to enhance the value of the data being collected.

We also offer real-time remote support to our customers. All our existing customers with a current Annual Maintenance Subscription (AMS) can update their software for free. Learn More.

Key Benefits & Features

  • Simultaneously monitor and control all ROMDAS modules in real-time
  • Operator friendly, ease of use
  • Inbuilt Location Referencing system (LRPs)
  • Customizable keycode asset and condition rating system
  • Inbuilt calibration and self-testing features
  • Real-time status and display of all modules during surveying
  • Automatically reference data to distance/chainage and GPS (if connected to a GPS receiver)
  • Process data onsite for immediate results
  • Low processor requirements means it can run on any laptop or computer
  • Free office version for processing/reprocessing survey files in the office

In-Built Keycode Feature

ROMDAS offers a powerful and flexible feature to collect and reference a range of information during surveys. Users can define a large list of conditions or inventory that operators can record at the press of a button. In simple terms - if an operator can see an event while surveying then they can record it instantly. This is commonly used for recording assets and creating an inventory of; signs, drainage, bridges, traffic lights, safety assets, pavement types and conditions, shoulder and pedestrian conditions, surface defects and much more.

All keycodes are referenced with distance/chainage, LRP references and GPS coordinates, as well as any comments made by the operator. Keycoding is simple, very easy to use and can greatly enhance the level of information collected during surveys.
