Abstract

Transport routes play a fundamental role in the communication of a country, they are of vital importance both in the urban area and in the rural area, some of them are paved and constituted by various materials that with the passage of time can present different types of deterioration or irregularities. Therefore, with the following document it is intended to give a solution to estimate the damage caused by these irregularities that in sum are of interest to study the potholes, cracks and crocodile skins that are common with the passage of time in the respective road. With this objective, a treatment is carried out from the perspective of digital image processing using perspective transformation techniques, thresholds, filters, among others, in order to estimate the affected equivalent area that varies according to the irregularity, evaluating the veracity of the result by means of the intersection on union method (IOU) obtaining accuracy or precision values of 0.69,  0.87, 0.79 for deterioration such as crocodile skin, bumps and cracks conceived in this document.
