Road Infrastructure Management (RIM) is an application that provides a new way of collecting road use data from vehicles to better inform and optimise the management of road networks.
RIM is a low-cost application that collects data on location, time and identity from enrolled vehicles, then monitors road asset utilisation for asset planning and network management.
Analysis and reports will include aggregated and de-identified data, and show trends across a network.
This application is used as an approved intelligent transport system, as described in Chapter 7 of the Heavy Vehicle National Law 2012 (HVNL), to apply intelligent access program conditions for restricted access heavy vehicles.
How it can be used
Road managers and planners may use RIM to gain a better understanding of road and bridge infrastructure utilisation to inform road infrastructure and network planning.
Road managers or regulators will advise when enrolment into the RIM application is required.
