BATT Vision Asphalt Pavement Condition Analysis (PCI)
AI-based, BATT Vision — consistent, reliable Pavement Condition Analysis at your fingertips.
BATT Vision is a high-tech service that combines artificial intelligence with a streamlined data collection process, data analytics, and data visualization to achieve a high-level of accuracy and consistency in assessing the condition of asphalt pavements.

Asphalt Density Testing
Asphalt density testing during construction can verify that the asphalt is compacted to the required specifications in real-time, preventing costly rework and ensuring optimal pavement performance. Field density testing can identify conditions that cause premature cracking, potholes, or moisture damage. On-the-spot density testing provides assurance that the pavement has the durability and strength to meet the client's needs long term and also reduce future maintenance costs.
-
Asphalt Friction Testing
The Dynamic Friction Test is a newer, more intuitive tool for measuring skid resistance. This important advancement in testing enables agencies and contractors to quickly evaluate aggregate sources and pavement surfaces rather than waiting five to 10 years for the pavement to show results. Best of all, the DFT can travel from the lab to the field for real-time data and correlation.

Asphalt Core Sampling
Asphalt core sampling provides an accurate assessment of asphalt density, layer thickness, and overall compaction. It is particularly helpful in forensic analyses of failed pavements.
A physical sample can provide information on the material properties, identify potential defects, and verify compliance with project specifications. It can also assess the uniformity and quality of the asphalt, enabling informed decisions regarding the pavement's performance and longevity.
