The major results of this study were a Data Quality Management Plan and a comprehensive procedures manual providing a road map and steps to establish a process for quality control and acceptance of pavement condition data collected with CTDOT\u2019s automated 3-D laser systems. The Data Quality Management Plan (DQMP) was submitted for Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) approval in accordance with federal requirements. Ultimately, following the receipt of FHWA comments, CTDOT revised and resubmitted the DQMP, which was approved by the FHWA in August 2018.125
