The Road Inventory Program (RIP) Section manages the nationwide Road Inventory Program for the National Park Service and the Road Inventory Program for the Forest Service in the Eastern United States.  With the use of state-of-the-art equipment and engineering expertise, this program documents the condition of pavements, geometrics, and drainages of existing park roads and parkways.  The data collected includes a video log that can be used by the appropriate Federal Lands Management Agency and Federal Highway Administration managers to define and support decisions for improvement projects.  This information will be integrated within a Geographic Information System (GIS).
