Monitoring and Identification of Road Construction Safety Factors via UAV.

The safety of road construction is one of the most important concerns of construction managers for the following reasons: long-span construction operation, no fixed monitoring cameras, and huge impacts on existing traffic, while the managers still rely on manual inspection and a lack of image records. With the fast development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), monitoring safety concerns of road construction sites becomes easily accessible. This research aims to integrate UAVs and AI to establish a UAV-based road construction safety monitoring platform.
