Vaisala has created an eBook which looks at how artificial intelligence can be used in road maintenance.

AI on the road: Why pavement condition inventory is such an excellent AI use case explains how Vaisala RoadAI is helping organisations address the most difficult challenges with infrastructure management. 

"Maintaining roads is complex, and organisations are looking for more efficient, cost-effective and safe ways to maintain their networks,"  Vaisala says.

"AI offers much more than basic road analysis. The technology helps you to quickly analyse your road conditions; upload assessments and inspector notes; make maintenance decisions and respond faster; and keep your roads safer."

The RoadAI system combines live road video with state-of the-art computer vision and analytics for carrying out road inspections. 

The combination of these automated, unbiased factors gives road inspectors a trustworthy artificial assistant to support their work, the company insists.
 
The eBook contains information on how how data can be collected on the same rides as scheduled safety inspections or daily road patrols, and gives examples of best practice.
