Road maintenance, AI & GIS

Since recently, it’s been prohibitively expensive to keep road infrastructure data updated. Road signs fade, get moved, go missing and the city's resources to record and fix everything from potholes to light poles are limited. While Google Maps doesn’t register inventory, it provides street images which document the physical environment. However, the images don’t get updated frequently outside of the capital regions and therefore can only be used in limited use cases. Pluto offers a solution for this. Inventory is registered automatically with a smartphone camera, and the updated road images can be both accessed from a web map provided by Pluto, as well as integrated directly into GIS. This opens up the possibilities for cost-effective data collection and analysis.
