Airport Inspector is transforming how airports maintain their pavements

Airport Inspector runs annual LCMS-based pavement inspection with ASTM D5340 PCI ratings, year-over-year condition trends, and GIS-ready output.

What Airport Inspector does

Annual pavement inspection. Full coverage. Machine-classified.

Airport Inspector runs across your full airfield and delivers ASTM D5340 PCI ratings, year-over-year condition trends, and GIS-ready output. No sampling. No subjectivity.

01 — Inspect

100% coverage, every time.

Manual inspectors cover 20-30% of an apron by walking it. Airport Inspector runs across the full surface. Every crack, every joint, every repair instance is found and classified. Nothing is skipped because of time pressure or available headcount on the day.

02 — Classify

ASTM D5340 PCI ratings, consistent and machine-generated.

Every defect is classified to ASTM D5340 and assigned a PCI rating. The same classification logic runs on every survey, every year. Results are directly comparable across cycles because the classifier does not vary between operators or conditions.

03 — Report

Year-over-year trends and GIS-ready data.

Every run produces condition maps, PCI scores by zone, and maintenance priority lists. Year-over-year comparison is built in. Your asset management system can ingest the output directly, without manual re-entry or format conversion.

Proven at Schiphol

100% pavement coverage. 20–30% before.
AI has fewer missed cracks than a human.

“The inspection and assessment process, and subsequent rendering into a PCI report and geographical diverse information, is fully digital and automated.”

05.1

Every defect mapped and classified.

Each crack, joint and repair instance is detected, typed and placed on the grid — an auditable record of exactly what was found and where.

05.2

Find it early, or replace it later.

Asset health falls over time. Caught early, a small intervention extends service life; missed, the curve drops off a cliff into failure and replacement.

How it works

Survey to PCI-rated condition map in one run.

01

Capture pavement data

LCMS survey pass or drone flight across the full airfield. Self-serve upload or managed delivery.

02

AI classifies every defect

Cracks, joints, and repairs are found, classified to ASTM D5340, and assigned a PCI score per zone.

03

Year-over-year comparison built in

Results are mapped to the same coordinate reference as prior runs. Condition change is visible without manual cross-referencing.

04

Export for maintenance planning

GeoJSON, condition maps, PDF inspection reports. Priority lists route directly into your asset management system.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

No. You can use Mavisoft's preferred partner SWIC, already active globally, or bring your existing LCMS subcontractor. Airport Inspector processes the data package they deliver. No proprietary capture hardware required.

At Schiphol, the AI has proven to detect more damage than traditional human inspection, and it classifies every defect consistently to ASTM D5340 rather than relying on individual judgment on the day.

Yes. Every detection references the exact model version, workflow version, and zone-set that produced it. Findings are reproducible and auditable long after the inspection runs.

Your airfield team or their designated contractor. Users of Airport Inspector will have access to Spectra to manage, validate, and export their inspections results.

Typically one inspection cycle across a defined area of your airfield. Structured to recover implementation cost before any platform license commitment.
