Introduction. Road signs form the framework of the driver's decision-making system in the process of driving a vehicle, in places of merging, separation and intersection of traffic and pedestrian flows. One of the most important characteristics of road signs is their brightness and ability to retroreflectivity at night. Signs should have clear feedback. The more fully and clearly the driver is informed about the conditions and the required mode of movement, the more accurate and error-free his actions are.
Problem statement. The absence of accounting of all installed signs on the roads, signs that need to be replaced, signs that are at the end of their service life, as well as signs that meet or do not meet the requirements of regulatory documents in terms of retroreflective qualities.
Objective. To analyze the software for electronic accounting of road signs, to determine the need and feasibility of developing and installing such software in road facilities.
Materials and methods. Theoretical and empirical methods of scientific research are used to analyze the software for electronic accounting of road signs.
Results. The analysis of foreign sources on the available software for electronic accounting of road signs was carried out.
Conclusions. The development and implementation of software for electronic accounting of road signs will significantly improve and speed up the process of processing the results, analyzing and preparing a report on the installation, number, condition and results of the road signs survey. By applying the results of road signs retroreflectivity tests, it is possible to organize a road maintenance system that ensures a constant high level of visibility of road signs, which will increase road safety, especially in adverse weather conditions.
