iENGINEERING and Kimley-Horn joined forces on a transportation asset inventory project for a local agency. iENGINEERING has developed a new service line of AI-enabled transportation engineering software, known as Transconomy, that will automate and accelerate data processing activities for engineering firms and consultants. Kimley-Horn will utilize this service line for processing roadway image data for their client organizations, including State and local highway agencies, metropolitan planning organizations, and other transportation asset owners.

Transconomy Asset software is capable of automatically detecting and classifying traffic signs according to the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) Manual for Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), other point assets (such as light posts, utility poles, fire hydrants, etc.), line assets (such as guardrails, medians, barriers, etc.), and many more asset types. iENGINEERING recently delivered transportation asset inventory and condition data by processing roadway images of over 100 lane-miles (nearly 50,000 images) for a local agency that is a client of Kimley-Horn. These raw images were automatically processed to identify assets, remove duplicates, geo-tag asset locations on a map, and provide condition information. Transconomy Asset software has been tested by other engineering consulting firms and two State highway agencies.
