Abstract

Major cities are inherent with substantial infrastructure and they are aging. They consist of above ground infrastructure such as roads, bridges, buildings and underground infrastructure such as water pipes, gas pipes, tunnel and sewers to name a few. These infrastructures are heavily utilized and they need ongoing inspections for making assessments of structural integrity and deterioration followed by appropriate maintenance before they can become unsafe and unusable. Failures of such assets contribute to huge economic and social costs. In the past and mostly present, these inspection and operations have been generally carried out manually by engineers or qualified professionals resulting in occupational health and safety issues and slow processes.
