To be held at FHWA's Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center in McLean, Virginia from 12:30 pm on 20n August to 12:30 pm on 21 August 2013, the workshop will provide participants from academia, the private sector, and government with an opportunity to discuss recent research and methodologies for measuring internal and external vehicle noise levels to study roadways, bridge and infrastructure health monitoring, including attributes such as road roughness, pavement conditions, and stress on bridge joints.

This workshop will also explore using passenger vehicle as a mobile sensor to capture and manage such data within the connected vehicle environment. The EAR Program may use the workshop discussion to identify topic areas for future high risk, high value research projects.
