GNSSaAccuracy: 1.2 m 4 ft in the X and Y directions DMI EncoderaAccuracy: 0.025 aThe DMI and GNSS are both used for determination of the location

29、of surface temperature measurements. The agency shall define whether both the GNSS and DMI encoder are required. DMI is difficult to calibrate with changing hopper loads and, therefore, it is recommended that GNSS be required and used for linear distances. (1) Modem, or Wi-Fi, for transferring data

30、to cloud storage. (2) Onboard Documentation SystemUse an onboard documentation system with a minimum of the following capabilities: (2.1) Displays (in real time) a map of the surface temperature readings, (2.2) Displays the total distance, paver speed, and location. (2.3) Reports the surface tempera

31、ture readings and GNSS status. (2.4) Provides real-time statistical summaries of the surface temperature readings. (2.5) Has the ability to manually export data using a removable media device. (2.6) Allows the operator to define the lot currently being placed. 3.1.3.2. PMTP Data: 3.1.3.2.1. Export t

32、he thermal profiling data: (1) As dbase, ASCII, or text format, (2) Directly into Veta if a file format compatible with Veta is available (software can be downloaded from ), or (3) Through a direct transfer of data from cloud storage to Veta. Note 1Direct transfer of data from cloud storage to Veta

33、is the preferred import method as this process reduces the number of steps required to export data from the cloud storage/cloud mapping software. 3.1.3.2.2.

Design File: Note 2It is recommended that the agency create the background and alignment

40、 file(s). See Appendix X1 for recommended language. 3.2.1. The alignment file allows the user to geospatially view the surface temperature measurements with respect to the given centerline location. This is beneficial when troubleshooting workmanship, overlaying density data (or other measurement da

41、ta), and/or for identification of PMTP system issues. 3.3. Field StationingEnsure that field station markers match the centerline stationing used in the background and alignment design file, when used. 3.4. PMTP System Setup on Paver(s): 3.4.1. Instrument all pavers that are paving the traffic and r

42、equired auxiliary lanes with the PMTP system. The PMTP system is not required on the secondary paver for instances where echelon paving is used to assist with the paving of auxiliary lanes not requiring PMTP method. Secondary pavers are those pavers that are not used for paving of traffic lanes, but

43、 are used for paving of approaches, ramps, intersecting streets, etc. 3.4.2. Ensure that the installed PMTP system takes measurements within 3 m 10 ft of the trailing edge of the screed plate and does not restrict the accuracy and functionality of the GNSS or DMI. 2018 by the American Association of

Ensure that brackets used for pavement smoothness that are located in the measurement area do not affect more than two (2) surface temperature readings recorded

45、in the lateral direction (see Table 3). Ensure that other obstructions (e.g., umbrellas, lights, etc.) are not obstructing measurements. 3.4.4. Verify that the surface temperature readings and the GNSS are working within the requirements of this provision when requested by the agency. 3.5. Definitio

46、n of Lot and Sublot for Thermal Profiling: 3.5.1. Lot Establishment: 3.5.1.1. The agency defines a lot as all asphalt paving for a given day, lift, material type, and centerline offsets (or lane number). 3.5.1.2. Distinctly identify the lots for thermal profile measurements using the standard format

47、 per Tables 4 and 5. Ensure that the lot designations are digitally stored with the associated thermal profile measurements. See Appendix X1 “Standardized Naming Convention for Lots” for example naming convention. Note 3The coordinates contain the date component of the lot designat ion and, therefor

48、e, are not included in the standardized naming convention. Note 4Automation has been created in Veta that reduces the amount of time to create the project by about 90 percent when using this standardized lot naming convention. Additionally, manufacturers have requested standardization of lot names a

49、mong agencies to allow the ability to start creating associated platforms in the PMTP systems for automation and increasing the ease of labeling, selection, and other operations for screed operators.
