rroad R package

Set of tools for monitoring road condition.

Currently, the following features are supported:

International Roughness Index (IRI) computation
- continuously increasing segment
- fixed length overlapping segments with an offset

Download and Install

Examples

profile <- rnorm(10000)
iri <- CalculateIRIperSegments(profile, IRI_COEF_100, 20)
par(mfrow = c(1,2)) # space for two diagrams
plot(profile, type = "l",
  xlab = "Distance [dm]", ylab = "Profile [mm]",
  main = "Read profile (Laser measurement)")
plot(iri, type = "s",
  xlab = "Segment", ylab = "IRI [m/km]",
  main = "International Roughness Index (IRI)\nsample = 10cm, segment = 20m")
