How Geolantis helps enhancing Road Safety and Compliance in connection with precision GNSS rovers

Discover a Geolantis360 GNSS success story from one of our clients, highlighting the significant strides made in road safety and compliance.

Background

A major road construction project is underway, requiring meticulous planning and execution to meet the stringent standards set by the road authority. The project involves redeveloping a section of highway with specific traffic regulation requirements, including staggered speed limits approaching the construction site. To achieve this, precision in data collection and ensuring the proper location of the construction site is paramount.

Challenge

The key challenge was to accurately map and designate the construction zone to align with traffic regulations and safety standards. Traditional methods of site surveying were deemed insufficient due to their lower accuracy and longer timeframes. The road authority required a solution that guaranteed precision and compliance with regulations.

Solution with Geolantis360 GNSS

The project team chose the Geolantis360 GNSS platform for its superior accuracy in geographic data collection and site mapping. The implementation involved the following steps:

1. High-Precision Site Mapping: Utilizing the high-accuracy GNSS capabilities of Geolantis360, the team conducted a comprehensive survey of the construction area. This process involved delineating exact boundaries and identifying key points where speed limits would change according to the regulations.
2. Zoning and Compliance Alignment: Based on the collected data, the construction site was divided into zones corresponding to the different speed limits (70 km/h, 50 km/h, and 30 km/h). This zoning ensured that the construction site layout precisely matched the regulatory requirements.
3. Documentation and Reporting: Detailed reports and maps generated from the Geolantis360 data were prepared. These documents provided clear, accurate representations of the construction site, crucial for the approval process.
4. Authority Review and Approval: The road authority conducted a thorough review of the plans and data provided. The precision and clarity of the information facilitated a streamlined approval process.
5. Implementation and Monitoring: With the road authority's approval, construction commenced. The precise data from Geolantis360 ensured that all safety measures and traffic regulations were accurately implemented on site.

Results

• Accurate Implementation: The exact boundaries and zones were implemented on-site, perfectly aligning with the regulatory requirements.
• Efficient Approval Process: The high accuracy and clarity of the data facilitated a quick and smooth approval process with the road authority.
• Enhanced Safety: Precise mapping and zoning led to improved safety measures, tailored specifically to the construction site's layout.
• Confidence in Compliance: The project team and the road authority were confident in the compliance and safety of the construction site, thanks to the precision offered by Geolantis360.

Conclusion

The Geolantis360 GNSS platform proved to be an invaluable tool in the road construction project, primarily for its precision in data collection and site mapping. Its use ensured that the construction site was accurately aligned with traffic regulations and safety standards, leading to successful approval by the road authority and enhanced safety measures. This case exemplifies the critical role of advanced GNSS technology in modern construction projects.
