Abstract


This paper focuses on the introduction of levelAMS geotechnical asset management software. levelAMS is meticulously designed for daily use, empowering decision-makers with optimized tools to oversee linear assets efficiently. This work emphasizes the necessity for a standardized and digitized approach to manage geotechnical assets within extensive motorway networks, citing the case of Brisa's Motorway Concession in Portugal. It provides a detailed overview of the diverse characteristics of geotechnical assets, such as slopes and retaining walls, and underscores the software's features, advantages, and practical application. Notable features include the software's flexibility, dual approach to asset classification, and key functionalities like the Slope Quality Index (SQI), risk maps, and degradation models. The abstract concludes by highlighting the application of levelAMS within Brisa's network, showcasing its role in enhancing overall asset management efficiency.
