In recent years, highway infrastructure construction has been rapid development in our country, the highway mileage increasing, highway maintenance task gradually aggravate, highway maintenance management level is an urgent need to improve, to meet the needs of the development of highway construction. Highway as the main management object of pavement management system, has the typical linear characteristic, has the rich spatial information. For spatial information into the collection, management and analysis, it is the geographic information system (GIS) technology. Blend in GIS technology in highway management, the establishment of road information management system based on GIS is the trend of the development of the highway maintenance technology. Using GIS technology, can realize the seamless connection of spatial data and attribute data of highway, can realize data management, condition evaluation and maintenance plan in the whole process of the highway maintenance management work such as visualization, thus greatly improving the efficiency of the work of highway maintenance management department.
