Development of an infrared system coupled with a weather station for real time atmospheric corrections using GPU computing: Application to bridge monitoring

A system (software and hardware) has been studied and developed to allow long term monitoring of transport infrastructures in a stand alone configuration. It is based on the implementation of low cost infrared cameras available on the market coupled with other measurement systems to feed simplified radiative models running on GPU available on small PC. Results obtained after implementation on a bridge open to traffic are presented and analysed.
