The document discusses using remote sensing and GIS techniques to develop an artificial neural network model for predicting pavement performance. It aims to map the current condition of pavement along a road in Chennai, develop a prediction model using ANN incorporated with GIS, validate the model, and predict and map future pavement conditions. Relevant spatial and non-spatial data will be collected and used to calculate a pavement surface index. The ANN model will be developed and compared to traditional models. Future recommendations include applying the techniques to support pavement management and maintenance decision making.
