The problem
Road damage is reported late and unevenly, so repair crews are dispatched on complaints instead of evidence.
What to build
Create a pipeline that detects potholes from video or vibration data, geotags them and ranks repairs by severity and traffic.
Success looks like
Detection precision above 85% on collected road footage and a prioritised, map-based work list for a ward.
Suggested technologies
- Computer vision
- Accelerometer analysis
- GPS tagging
- Prioritisation
- GIS dashboards
