Road Surface Mark Abrasion Visualization System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems struggle to easily identify and differentiate the degree of abrasion for various types of road surface marks, such as stop lines, crosswalks, and stop characters, on a map.
Innovation Solution
A management assistance system that determines the type and degree of abrasion of road surface marks from captured images and displays this information on a map using distinct icons for each type of mark, based on position information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If a single display mode is used to show all road surface marks on a map, then the map can display all marks, but it becomes difficult to distinguish different types of marks and their abrasion degrees at a glance
Solution Approach 1:
The display is segmented by separating different types of road surface marks into different visual categories using distinct icons. Each mark type (stop line, crosswalk, stop character) is represented by a specific icon style, allowing simultaneous display of multiple mark types while maintaining clear visual distinction and easy identification of their respective abrasion degrees.
2Loss of information
If detailed information about each road surface mark is displayed, then complete information is provided, but it becomes difficult to grasp the overall abrasion status quickly
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses color coding to represent the degree of abrasion for each road surface mark. Different colors indicate different abrasion levels, allowing users to quickly grasp the overall status of multiple marks at a glance while still providing complete information about each mark's condition through the color indicators.

AI summary
A system according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: at least one memory configured to store instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to: determine a type of a road surface mark and a degree of abrasion of the road surface mark from a road surface image taken of a road surface; and display different types of icons for each type of road surface mark on one map based on position information about a location at which the road surface image is captured, each of the icons representing the degree of abrasion of the respective road surface mark.
