ABSTRACT:
A road surface is scanned with a laser beam in a direction transverse to the road surface to pick up the scanning locus of the laser beam on the road surface in a direction inclined to a beam scanning surface so as to obtain transverse profile data. The laser light reflected from the road surface is received in a direction inclined to the beam scanning surface for obtaining crack data. The distances to the road at three points in the longitudinal direction of a measuring car are measured. The running distance of the car is measured and the measured distance data are recorded in a recording device together with crack data, transverse profile data and longitudinal profile data.
