Plan safer, smoother active transportation networks

Bike paths, trails, and multi-use routes need the same condition data as road networks. TotalPave helps teams collect IRI, PCI, and imagery-based condition data across active transportation networks, then turn that information into long-term maintenance and renewal plans.

Bike-mounted TotalPave IRI

Mount a smartphone securely to the bicycle handlebars and ride the target paths to collect roughness data. Results are organized by mapped segment so teams can identify uncomfortable sections, compare corridors, and monitor changes in ride quality over time.

Complete the same guided visual pavement condition assessment used on road networks. Inspect representative samples and record distress type, severity, and extent to produce section-level PCI results for paths and trails.

Mount a suitable camera to your handlebars and collect clear, georeferenced imagery as you ride. TotalPave processes the footage into PCI scores and distress-level outputs when walking surveys are not practical.

Combine IRI, PCI, budgets, treatment options, and planning rules to compare scenarios and develop maintenance and rehabilitation strategies for the active transportation network.

ACTIVE NETWORK CAPABILITIES

Everything you need for bike path and trail condition planning

Collect active transportation condition data, review mapped results, compare planning scenarios, and export outputs for asset management, grants, and capital planning.

IRI Data Collection

Measure ride quality on bike paths by mounting a phone to the handlebars of a bicycle and collecting IRI along the route.

PCI Data Collection

Complete guided pavement condition surveys on paths and paved trails using the TotalPave PCI app, with distress type, severity, and extent.

Condition Mapping​

View active transportation segments by condition, treatment need, priority, or route type so network issues are easier to understand.

Maintenance and Renewal Analytics​

Use IRI and PCI results to support renewal timing, treatment selection, and long-term maintenance planning.

Budget Scenarios​

Compare funding levels and understand how investment choices affect future active transportation network condition.

Reports and Exports​

Export data for GIS, spreadsheets, grant reporting, asset management plans, and council or board materials.

HOW IT WORKS

From path data to an Actionalable renewal plan

A practical workflow for collecting IRI, PCI, and imagery on active transportation routes, then turning that data into mapped results and planning recommendations.
Step 1

Set Up

Start with existing route GIS files or create interval-based segments for trails, bike paths, and multi-use networks.

Step 2

Collect

Collect IRI with a handlebar-mounted phone, complete PCI surveys in the field, or collect handlebar-mounted imagery for SurfaceView PCI.

Step 3

Review

Review mapped results, segment scores, inspection records, imagery outputs, and planning analytics in the web portal.

Step 4

Plan

Build a clear maintenance and renewal plan for paving, preservation, repair, and future monitoring.

FAQ

Active transportation network FAQs

Answers to common setup, collection, export, and planning questions for bike paths, trails, and multi-use active transportation networks.
Do we need special equipment?

No. IRI can be collected with a smartphone mounted to bicycle handlebars. PCI uses the TotalPave PCI app to facilitate a visual assessment. SurfaceView PCI can use handlebar-mounted camera imagery when imagery-based assessment is preferred.

Yes. Staff can collect IRI, PCI, and imagery data using TotalPave workflows. TotalPave can also help with setup, review, SurfaceView PCI processing, and analytics.

Route GIS files are helpful, but they are not always required. TotalPave can work with existing GIS data or create interval-based segments when needed.

TotalPave combines condition data, segment-level scores, maps, and analytics to help identify which paths should be monitored, repaired, preserved, resurfaced, or reconstructed.

Yes. Data can be exported for GIS, spreadsheets, grant reports, asset management plans, and internal planning workflows.

Yes. TotalPave analytics can be used to generate recommended maintenance and renewal plans based on active transportation condition data and available budget.
