Extracting Road Surface Marking Features From Aerial Images Using Deep Learning, Michael Kimollo Jan 2023

Extracting Road Surface Marking Features From Aerial Images Using Deep Learning, Michael Kimollo

UNF Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The traffic and roadway safety agencies spend significant efforts each year collecting roadway data, including lane configurations and other road surface marking data, such as areas with school zone markings, sidewalks, left turns, right turns, bicycle lanes, etc., for safety analysis and planning purposes. The current manual data collection methods pose significant operational and quality control challenges as they are costly and prone to errors. In addition to that the manual data collection is labor intensive and takes too much time involving high equipment costs, questionable data accuracy guarantees, and concerns about the safety of the crew.

This study aims …


Development Of Practical Assessment Techniques For Sinkhole Potential In Florida Based On Sinkhole Vulnerability Indices, Sylvia Pesha Jan 2023

Development Of Practical Assessment Techniques For Sinkhole Potential In Florida Based On Sinkhole Vulnerability Indices, Sylvia Pesha

UNF Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Sinkholes are natural geohazards prevalent in Florida's distinctive karst geology, posing risks to public safety, infrastructure, and groundwater integrity. Considering the increasing frequency of sinkhole occurrences in Florida due to land development in vulnerable soils, understanding the potential for sinkhole occurrence can aid in the identification of high-risk locations and inform effective mitigation strategies. Researchers have developed three point-based indices to be used when assessing the vulnerability a project site has to sinkhole formation based on the encountered subsurface conditions. Engineers have historically used an index based on the subsurface layer thicknesses, called the Raveling Index (RI). In recent years, …


Investigation On The Influence Of Augmented Reality Adoption And Cybersecurity In The Architecture, Engineering And Construction Industry, Kavyaa Boopathy Jan 2023

Investigation On The Influence Of Augmented Reality Adoption And Cybersecurity In The Architecture, Engineering And Construction Industry, Kavyaa Boopathy

UNF Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Augmented Reality (AR) applications and the digitization of Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry processes, such as the online building permit process (BPP), have introduced new developments that simplifies tasks, and enhanced data accessibility for stakeholders. This created a digital landscape where sensitive information and critical processes are intertwined, making them vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Existing studies and frameworks on a) AR adoption doesn’t provide essential information (e.g., material availability and costs from different suppliers) and AR features to cater to the diverse needs of different stakeholders. b) threat modeling requires a domain and context specific need investigation, process exploration, critical …
