    Based on the lack of information on the physical condition of the road network in the canton of Ambato, this degree project used visual assessment through the Pavement Condition Index or PCI method and the MTOP standards to identify and analyze the condition of the roads in the Ficoa area in the city of Ambato and used RTK-10 equipment to obtain coordinates of each point of failure and thus create a georeferenced database of the road network. A thorough evaluation of the roads in the area was carried out, including the identification and classification of the pathologies present, including deformations, cracks and other forms of damage to the road surface and their severity, Coordinates were determined using RTK-10 equipment and a geo-referenced database of the road network was created using computer software that includes data on the location and condition of each road, as well as details on needed repairs or maintenance, and geographic information system (GIS) technology was used to map the roads and enter the information into the overall project database. At the end of the study, the databank will be delivered to the GAD Municipal de Ambato to facilitate access to detailed information on the condition of the roads and, with this, a road maintenance plan can be developed.
