Re: I have a simpler and lower cost solution
Live in rural Hants and all the local roads are effectively what I would call "cart track". Going over 30mph is a risk to the vehicle.
I find it hard to believe that sat photos are a better solution than one of the below
- cameras on bin lorries with "AI" to spot holes
- Deal with Google, Waze or other to correlate user pot hole experience (is driving, phone shock detected, with position etc)
- making it easier for users to report issues
I'd think having existing road users as automated detectors would be best.
