A compaction system, including a first and second array of compaction elements supported by an underside of a motorized vehicle adapted to traverse a degraded surface. A sensor assembly is supported by the motorized vehicle, disposed intermediate the first and second array of compaction elements, and in electrical communication with a controller. The sensor assembly also being adapted to sense a characteristic of an at least partially compacted surface formed after the first array of compacting elements applies a first compaction pressure to the degraded surface. The controller being in electrical communication with the second array of compaction elements and has an input field for a second compaction pressure. The sensor assembly is adapted to input the second compaction pressure into the field and the controller is adapted to adjust the second array of compaction elements to apply the second compaction pressure to the at least partially compacted surface.
