    In this project, the need for a road evaluation is presented in the urban roads of the Ambato canton, due to the fact that within the road infrastructure, many deteriorations have been evidenced within the surface layer, which causes discomfort to users. In the present project, the visual evaluation was first carried out in the urban area of the Ambato canton, with the purpose of being able to determine the condition of the pavement through a visual inspection in flexible, rigid and articulated pavements, in addition to taking a GPS point as georeferencing of the faults found. For this purpose, evaluation formats were prepared based on the ASTM D6433 standards, Ecuadorian Road Standard (NEVI-12), and the article in the C. H. Higuera Sandoval magazine, "Pathology of articulated pavements". The collection of information was continued based on the types of failures found, level of severity and their unit of measurement, on the other hand, the abscissa was considered according to the length of each of the roads. Regarding the roads with greater extension, the calculation of the pavement condition index was implemented. Having tabulated the information, the faults were placed on the map using the ArcGIS software, in addition to proceeding with an analysis of unit prices for maintenance or interventions required on the roads. At the end of the evaluation, a database will be delivered to the GAD Municipality of Ambato, which will use the information for the benefit of society as a contribution from the Technical University of Ambato.
