The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet commits significant resources annually to controlling vegetation along roadsides and right-of-way areas through application of chemical herbicides. A significant challenge they face is accurate georeferenced tracking of applications. This project helped guide the group through the process of deciding what data were critical to tracking roadside applications, understanding how to equip the wide variety of equipment currently in use with data collection hardware, and integrating the hardware into existing vehicle tracking systems. The application data will help the KYTC remain in compliance with chemical application requirements, be protected from accusations of misapplication of chemicals, and secure future application contracts.
