July 9th, 2017
Presenter: David Day
Keystone Aerial Surveys, Inc.
Keystone Aerial Surveys, Inc.• Based in Philadelphia, PA with offices in Los Angeles, Tucson and Tyler, TX• Founded in 1963 to provide remote sensing throughout the US• 21 manned survey aircraft• 17 mapping sensors including 7 UltraCam digital cameras and 2 Optech LiDAR
systems • Provide post production services from large format digital, LiDAR and UAS imagery

Infrastructure Focus: Bridges• Pennsylvania has over 25,000 state owned bridges, third most in US 1
• Average age of the bridges are over 50 years 1
• Nearly 20% of the those are “deficient” 2
• PA has invested $370 million to repair/replace 1050 bridges in the last 5 years 1
• Nationwide there are over 607,000 bridges on the National Bridge Inventory• 55,710 of these bridges were found to be deficient 2
• In addition to repair/replace, thorough and efficient inspection must take place

Current Bridge Inspection Techniques
• Purpose built inspection units• Boat based• Rope based• Expensive, dangerous, necessary• But usually required by law

Recent Inspection Projects• Delaware Memorial Bridge (DE/NJ)• George Washington Bridge Ramps (NY)• Claiborne Pell Newport Bridge (RI)• Jamestown Bridge (RI)
Future• BrIM – Bridge Information Management
• Often ends at CAD delivery after construction• Bentley OpenBridge Modeler
Future• Governing bodies will accept hybrid UAV & traditional inspection• Cloud based 3D tools must become more robust• Governing agencies will use 3D structure views to track and share inspection
information
• Automated inventory techniques, including LiDAR• Location services around infrastructure must improve• Data security crucial for agency buy-in
