The Gipsi-Trac Geometry System uses a combination of inertial sensors to collect road geometry information.

The unit includes the Gipsi-Trac microprocessor-based system, which records and combines inertial data from a gyroscope, accelerometer and distance sensor with GPS position. The built in dead-reckoning capability allows for position data to be recorded when in tunnels, under bridges and locations with little or no GPS coverage.
It outputs data in a variety of customisable geographic projection systems that allow the user to export the data in their GPS native format, with no conversions necessary.
The Hawkeye Processing Toolkit software ensures that the survey data can be reviewed and processed quickly and efficiently. The data from each module can then be compared against other results and exported to most pavement and asset management systems.
The H1000 Gipsi-Trac system is capable of supporting a profiler with up-to three lasers, two digital imagery cameras and DGPS.

The Hawkeye software suite is a professional and powerful acquisition and data analysis combination.

Onlooker Live - Acquisition software

Hawkeye Onlooker Live software is an interactive, real-time acquisition control interface that is capable of simultaneously controlling all inputs from any Hawkeye system, from a single software application. The software runs on a dedicated computer in the vehicle or on a laptop-based system, with a fully customisable layout. The network control interface enables real-time result reporting and the capability to progressively add new Hawkeye modules,without the need for additional software.

• Real-time Windows graphical user interface for management of multiple computer systems
• Customisable screen layouts to suit individual operator requirements
• Multiple language support: English, Chinese, Spanish, Arabic and Russian
• Survey navigational tools such as compass, location reference points, maps and recording of events
• Computer generated speech for system warnings and other items requiring attention
• Supports a range of road reference formats

• Digital display of:
• profilometry
• video imagery
• speed and distance
• geometry
• Graphical display of:
• GPS maps
• inertial geometry mapping
• road profile information
• user defined survey notes tool

The Hawkeye software suite is a professional and powerful acquisition and data analysis combination.

The easy-to-use interface of Hawkeye Processing Toolkit features an integrated image viewer and centralised database to review all collected survey parameters. The software can be used to review and rate individual video frames against chainage and GPS, save images to file and zoom-in to inspect areas of interest. Multiple images can be assessed simultaneously and the road can be ‘driven’ at a rate selected by the operator.

• Extensive analysis and reporting capability
• Advanced mapping interface that supports Google background maps
• Centralised databases to allow multiple users to process and view the same survey data simultaneously
• Multiple language support: English, Chinese, Spanish, Arabic and Russian
• Metric and Imperial measurement systems supported
• Windows launching allowing for cross reference of data between applications
• Batch rubber banding and editable reference points
• Survey search filter
• Export to most PMS and GIS applications
• Batch processing and exporting
• Data export to CSV, PDF, MS Word, MS Excel, RTF, KML and SHP formats
• Windows (32 and 64 bit) compatible

• Calculation of:
• International Roughness Index (IRI)
• MPD and SMTD macrotexture
• Rut index
• Faulting
• Longitudinal profile
• Geometry
• Image area / length / height measurement
• Image stitching, zoom and resizing
• Asset location
• Profilometry analysis
• Graphical inertial / GPS mapping
• Shapefile imports
• User configurable rating forms
• Advanced HDM-4 exporting

Hawkeye Data Viewer, viewing only software, is also available.
The Hawkeye software suite is maintained by a large team of software developers and testers, with new releases occuring approximately every 8 weeks. ARRB prides themselves on integrating features based on customer feedback, and we encourage all of our clients to submit their comments or suggestions for improvements.
