Profile Data Specifications4.1 File Structure:4.1.1 The general f

16、ile structure is divided into five sections: (1) File Header; (2) Metadata; (3) Longitudinal Profile Data; (4)Transverse Profile Data; and (5) File Trailer. The five sections are stored sequentially. (See Fig. 1.)4.1.2 Each of these portions of the file is described in the following sections, as wel

17、l as the data types and other descriptors thatwill be required by the file. The data will be written to the file sequentially, with the offsets listed in the file header as guides tofind various portions of the file. It is important to note that all offsets are relative to the beginning of the file.

18、 Because offset valuesmay not be known at the time of writing the file header, these values need not be written. However, spare space must still bereserved for the offsets so that values can be updated when known.4.2 File HeaderFile header contains the information pertaining to the data file type, s

19、oftware version information, andinformation about the data contained (Table 1).4.3 Metadata:4.3.1 Metadata is structured, descriptive information about a resource, or data about data. Using metadata in the binary fileformat will allow generic operating on the data information about which the reader

20、software has no prior knowledge. Also,metadata will allow scalable evolution of the data description without requiring simultaneous upgrades to all reader software.4.3.2 The first value in the metadata portion will provide the number of metadata entries (MDE) (Table 2). Table 3 shows theinformation

21、required to construct an appropriate MDE.4.3.3 The metadata tags are listed in Table 4, and can be used in any number or order. If no metadata tags exist, number ofMDEs = 0.4.3.4 The names of the standard metadata entries (see Table 3) are not stored in the metadata entry to conserve space and morei

22、mportantly, to allow for localization, that is, the file is not tied to one written language. User-defined metadata entries cannot bearrays and the data type is always String.4.3.5 The storage convention for empty arrays is to store a one-byte value of the same data type as the array. For example, a

23、narray of singles with no elements would store a value of 0.FIG. 1 Layout of the File StructureE2560 1724.4 Longitudinal Profile Data:4.4.1 There are two ways to store the profile data: location-wise and array-wise. The first method is appropriate for datarecording during profile data collection to

24、prevent data loss, while the other is appropriate for post-processing to speed up softwarereading and writing.4.4.2 If the data storage format, from metadata tag #522 specifies location-wise storage, the longitudinal data will be stored asa sequence of current longitudinal distance followed by corre

25、sponding elevations of longitudinal sensors at this location, beginningat the left side of the vehicle. The next block of storage will store longitudinal distance and all elevation data for the next location,and so on. However, the location may not need to be stored if a specific data interval is gi

26、ven. (See Fig. 2.)4.4.2.1 In general, if a location and elevation channels are recorded for each test location, every set of n+1 Singles (one distancedata and n channels of elevation data) will be read as one profile location. If a specific data interval is included in the metadata,only n Singles wi

27、ll be read for each location. For example, if a standard interval exists and a single channel of profile data ispresent, only one Single will be read for each location. If two are present, then two Singles will be read per point.4.4.2.2 The location-wise format is recommended for profiler data acqui

28、sition software. Storing the data after every samplinglocation allows for immediate writing to protect against data loss and reduce memory requirements.TABLE 1 File HeaderVariable Name Data Type Data Default ValueSignature 4-byte String Identifies file as being written in the StandardPavement Profil

33、tside of the vehicle for all locations. (See Fig. 3.)4.4.3.1 In general, if distance and elevation channels are recorded for each test location, n+1 sets (one distance channel and nchannels of elevation data) of m Singles will be stored in sequence, where m is the number of points. If a specific dat

34、a intervalis included in the metadata, only n sets of m Singles will be stored sequentially, with distance being calculated from the beginningof the test location by the software. For example, if a standard interval exists and a single channel of profile data is present, onlyone set of Singles will

35、be stored. If two are present, then two sets of m Singles will be stored sequentially.4.4.3.2 This data format is recommended for software that reads and writes the data during post-processing. Data stored as onecontinuous array (array-wise) can be read and processed much faster than the location-wi

36、se storage format.4.5 Transverse Profile DataThe transverse elevation readings are treated the same as the longitudinal data.4.6 File TrailerThe file trailer is used to signal the end of the file. (See Table 15.)4.7 Event MarkersEvent markers are defined by tags 528 to 531. These four arrays must al

37、l be of the same length.4.8 Sections:4.8.1 A section is defined by the use of two event markers. The first event marker is the start location of the section and thesecond event marker is the stop location. Special attention should be paid to lead-in and lead-out event markers. These two markersdefin

38、e the section that is bounded by the lead-in and lead-out. Please note: they do not define the lead-in and lead-out, but thesection between them.
