Welcome
About this Site
This site documents technical details of the Default Juno Cassandra Road Deterioration Model (IDM) for analysis of Road Networks.
The Default Road Deterioration model provides a comprehensive and cutting-edge asset management tool that can be used by consultants and Local Authorities for short-to-long term Asset Management analyses.
Specifically, the Juno Cassandra model for NZ Local Authority road networks can be used to:
- Develop detailed, fit-for-purpose short term (3-year) Forward Works Programmes (FWPs)
- Perform analyses needed to develop and support a 30-year Infrastructure Strategy as stipulated for example in the New Zealand Local Government Act 101B.
Note that details on how to build models for the Juno Cassandra framework are not documented on this site. Instead, to learn more about the Juno Cassandra framework, including detailed documentation and video tutorials on how to build JCass models, please visit the formal documentation site for Juno Cassandra
