In the context of a substantial surge in demand within the transportation industry, the challenges associated with traditional road maintenance have increased significantly, accompanied by high labor costs. In response to this situation, this paper presents the main applications of remote sensing technology in highway management and maintenance and discusses some deficiencies of remote sensing technology in road monitoring.Remote sensing technology,with its efficient and comprehensive information acquisition capabilities, can effectively make up for the limitations of traditional road monitoring methods in terms of timeliness and coverage, thereby enhancing road management efficiency and promoting the modernization of management approaches.This paper demonstrates the feasibility of remote sensing technology in three aspects: the detection of highway networks, the monitoring of the degree of road damage caused by natural disasters, and the real-time monitoring of road traffic conditions. It is proven that remote sensing technology can bring about substantial transformations to road management approaches.
