Applications of Intelligent Technologies in the Life Cycle of Transportation Infrastructure

Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

The use of Artificial Intelligence (Al) is revolutionizing the way we maintain, construct, inspect, and manage transportation infrastructure. From predictive maintenance and smart construction techniques to integrating computer vision for inspection and utilizing autonomous drones and robots, Al is enhancing efficiency and accuracy in various applications. Real-time monitoring systems enabled by Al and loT are improving infrastructure management, while data fusion techniques are enhancing decision-making. Al applications are also transforming the planning of urban transportation infrastructure and promoting sustainable practices in the industry. The theme of this Topic is centered around the following points:

• Al-Driven Predictive Maintenance for Transportation Infrastructure;
• Smart Construction Techniques Leveraging Al;
• Integrating Computer Vision for Infrastructure Inspection;
• Autonomous Drones and Robots in Infrastructure Inspection;
• Real-Time Monitoring Systems Enabled by Al and loT;
• Data Fusion Techniques for Enhanced Decision-Making in Infrastructure Management;
• Al Applications in Urban Transportation Infrastructure Planning;
• Sustainable Practices in Transportation Infrastructure through Al.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
