The current airport pavement safety and health information detection has the bottleneck of low-frequency static, large proportion of human factors, one-sided information, low accuracy, low efficiency and dependence on external technical forces, so that the pavement maintenance design and construction can only be carried out in a passive and extensive way after the event. Especially with the increasing number of China’s military and civil airports, the expansion of hub airports, the aging of some airport pavements, and the increase of flight take-off and landing volume, the management and maintenance of airport pavements are facing the pressure of rapid increase in area, concentrated outbreak of diseases, various damage incentives, and short suspension maintenance time, which pose a huge challenge to the pavement safety, management and maintenance economy and navigation efficiency.
With the rapid development of nondestructive testing sensor, 5G, big data, Internet of things, cloud storage and processing, artificial intelligence, robot and other technologies, airport pavement management and maintenance presents from artificial semi-automatic sampling detection to intelligent comprehensive and accurate detection, from low-frequency static evaluation to high-frequency dynamic evaluation and early warning, from single information analysis to multi heterogeneous data fusion evaluation, from experience based evaluation From passive extensive maintenance to accurate maintenance based on data prevention, from phased discrete maintenance to life cycle maintenance.
In the future, a data acquisition system based on robot and Internet of things, an analysis and evaluation system based on artificial intelligence, and a trend perception and decision-making system based on big data and cloud computing will be formed, which will make the equipment intelligent, digital management, accurate maintenance, and standardized mode. It is expected to realize the first-line penetration of safety risks, the clear understanding of road health, the one key accessibility of disposal operation, and the prediction The ultimate goal of ensuring safety, improving quality and efficiency can be achieved through integrated operation of decision-making.
In order to promote the development of technical equipment and application system for accurate pavement detection, the Ministry of science and technology has launched the national key R & D plan “airport runway safety detection robot” project, and the Civil Aviation Administration has launched the key special project “research and test verification of key technologies for intelligent detection and analysis of airport pavement properties” for safety capacity building. Based on the above support, Shanghai Guimu robot Co., Ltd. focuses on the development of the airport pavement safety and health robot detection system based on the “cloud edge end” architecture, and builds a multi robot cooperative detection system with ground air integration and cloud intelligence, which is suitable for Pavement Inspection and regular inspection, so as to improve the airport pavement operation safety and health management in an intelligent, accurate, efficient and safe way Management ability and level.

（3） Application mode of comparison between engineering retest and repair construction effect
Quanzhou airport and other units, aiming at the problem of repeated pavement damage, use robot means to conduct a comprehensive, detailed and accurate investigation on the runway, and take targeted and accurate maintenance and repair measures. After the repair construction, the robot method is used to retest again, and the treatment effect is compared before and after, so as to ensure that the runway surface can fully meet the needs of safe operation.
（4） Application mode of pipeline modeling and risk control in non-stop construction
This application mode can help to carry out risk control for non-stop construction area. The robot is used to detect, locate and model the underground pipeline. Aiming at the runway disease prone areas, the non-stop construction is carried out effectively, and the data support is provided for the secondary construction burying to ensure the subsequent construction safety.
