The efficient maintenance of gravel roads depends on digital tools and data as well as information systems adapted for specific needs while conforming with current standards for better interconnectivity. Within gravel road maintenance, cloud-based solutions are a key alternative. This because necessary information, such as road condition data, could be shared throughout the network and provide the opportunity to coordinate maintenance activities between stakeholders. Effective standards are essential since they permit various services with the ability to work together while at the same time supporting differences that ease competition and innovation. Among several maintenance standards, the OSA-CBM and MIMOSA CRIS database schema are intended for handling information exchange and communication within and between systems supporting condition-based maintenance. This paper tests the usability of these standards for translating context-dependent information into a standardized data set. The domain studied is gravel road maintenance. Critical data was gathered and elicited from different stakeholders and represented in the form of a conceptual information model. This paper exemplifies how the conceptual model could be mapped into a logical model with respect to the CRIS information model. The main results are in the form of a conceptual and logical information model for purposes of gravel road maintenance, as well as a procedure suggested for mapping the information model following specific steps. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
