Abstract

The purpose of this article is to conceptualize the use of Drones and Remote Sensors technology in pavement evaluation, which have allowed to advance in the development of different methods to detect deterioration with precision and reliability. Thus, through the use of images, data collection with high precision and the ease in traveling long distances have made the drone-remote sensor integration a tool that can undoubtedly be used today in road projects such as improvement, rehabilitation and conservation. The methodology consisted in the interpretation and explanation of the relationship between Drone, Remote Sensors and their application in the visual evaluation of pavements. For this purpose, several normative documents, academic and research works at national and international level have been consulted. As results and discussion, the importance and conceptualization of the subject in question is shown. Finally, it was concluded by showing the need to implement these technologies in the development of road projects and the possible advantages in the immediate future.
