Stahl Sheaffer and Penn State presented the results of a comprehensive roadway asset management project for Penn State, which included developing e a Location Reference System (LRS), conducting a condition analysis, and creating a priority maintenance planning tool for all roads on the University Park campus and surrounding satellite properties. 

​Stahl Sheaffer conducted a 3-D LiDAR survey of more than 100 miles of roadway, including surface conditions, curb locations and attributes, sidewalks and ramps, bus pull off areas, sight distance at intersections, and other attributes for both paved and unpaved roads. The survey resulted in collection and storage of LiDAR Point cloud survey data, 360° imagery, and high-definition video logs for 312 roadway segments plus a tool to manage a 20-year maintenance plan and ongoing budget.
