Surface Analysis
The Synergy Survey-Profile system is both a DOT/NATA certified inertial profiler and high resolution mobile surveying system. The Survey-Profile system can simultaneously measure IRI (longitudinal profile), transverse profile and 2D/3D surface scans for land surveying and machine control applications.
Certified inertial profiler
The Synergy Survey-Profile system is both a DOT/NATA certified inertial profiler and high resolution mobile surveying system. The Survey-Profile system can simultaneously measure IRI (longitudinal profile), transverse profile and 2D/3D surface scans for land surveying and machine control applications. The survey side of the system has been end-user validated as more accurate than any commercial scanning system.
IRI with 3D scanning
This device does full 3D scanning and can be simultaneously (or separately) used for IRI /NAASRA testing and full lane transverse profiles (for rutting, lane edge change and more under AASHTO PP69-10 & 70-10). The surface survey data can be adjusted with a merge in of control points for very accurate 3D elevation content.
Pavement 2D rehabilitation
The system can also be used for 2D scanning for pavement rehabilitation work that does not involve paving to grade. Synergy’s software includes a Profile Design module for configuring slope and cut/fill parameters for a design output optimized for best IRI results. The data can be exported to machine control systems, including Synergy’s PaveSmart grade control system.
Network monitoring
Synergy’s road analysis technology can also be used for regular network survey including:
- IRI/NAASRA counts
- Pavement cracking
- Pavement rutting
- Reflective analysis
- Macro and micro textures
Resurfacing & Design
Synergy’s PaveSmart technology offers unique solutions to complicated design and resurfacing projects, utilizing high speed surveying systems and sophisticated resurfacing software.
Sophisticated survey technology
The Synergy suite of PaveSmart technology gives contractors, engineers and government agencies the ability to collect road surface data at high speed for CAD design analysis. With the incorporation of sophisticated resurfacing software, a series of what-if analyses can be created in search of the optimal balance between smoothness, asphalt thickness and yield.
Powerful resurfacing software
The systems and technology used by Synergy represent the very latest in design, operated by our industry experienced engineers, surveyors and technicians to guarantee your success. Utilizing robotic total station technology, ultra high precision millimeter accurate GPS systems and high speed vehicle based surveying systems, Synergy collects and analyzes large scale data sets of the existing pavement to compare with resurfacing design criteria.
Precise milling designs
Synergy’s technology creates detailed cut mapping which provides a highly accurate mill to grade model that conforms to strict resurfacing design parameters. With the technology to set out these cut models directly on site with Synergy’s ground survey team and technology or load a digital design for direct milling machine control utilizing our PaveSmart system, we can ensure total conformance to design at machine operator level.
Asphalt yield optimization
Even with substantial existing surface irregularities, Synergy PaveSmart grade control technology can regulate asphalt paving yields for the smoothest possible design while maintaining control over asphalt yield. You’ll know how smooth, how deep and how much asphalt before you pave.

PaveSmart
PaveSmart is our proprietary technology for intelligent asphalt paving and milling operations. Trust PaveSmart when you require survey accurate control to millimeter tolerances while allowing for the effects of differential asphalt compaction.
Absolute control
Where you require absolute accuracy and control, PaveSmart can be fitted to any asphalt paver or milling machine to control levels to survey accurate, millimeter tolerances — ensuring compliance with the most stringent contractual specifications while allowing for the effects of differential asphalt compaction.
Survey accuracy
PaveSmart uses a process of an initial Robotic Total Station survey to determine the precise asphalt paving or milling depths for each consecutive running lane the machine operates on.
Differential compaction control
Synergy’s PaveSmart grade control system offers distinct advantages to the engineer and/or contractor on any project requiring variable depth paving. The unit adapts to any paver that has electric/hydraulic control, eliminates string line or complicated 3D setups, allows high accuracy paving to + 1/8 inch or 3mm, allows for differential compaction, increases productivity, and is far less costly and risky to use in comparison to a conventional string-line or GPS control.
