The Challenge

The Road Management Gap

Improving roadway conditions within budget is the primary pain point for local government engineers. While data-driven solutions can optimize cost, today's tools create more problems than they solve.

Most systems are inaccessible to mid-size municipalities — requiring large capital investments, specialized vehicles, and proprietary software.

💸
Prohibitive Cost Current solutions require significant capital investment — out of reach for most local governments.
🚗
Dedicated Vehicles Required Traditional systems need specialized vehicles and staff just for data collection — expensive and inflexible.
🖥️
Siloed Software Stand-alone, proprietary software creates data silos and requires costly licensing and training.
🔍
Manual Verification Field teams must drive every route and manually locate defects — slow, error-prone, and resource-intensive.

The TransDAC Way

One Platform.
Every Asset.

A Transportation Data Analytics Cluster with a mobile data collection platform — a moving IoT system that converts any vehicle into a smart data collection unit.

01
📡
Mobile IoT Collection
Affordable, portable sensors attach to any existing utility vehicle. No dedicated fleet required. Detect potholes, count traffic, and measure surface conditions on every routine drive.
02
🤖
AI-Powered Analysis
Built-in machine learning algorithms classify defects with high accuracy — no manual image review. Feedback loops continuously improve model performance over time.
03
🌐
Web-Based Dashboard
Access and manage all transportation assets from any device. Real-time data visualization, archived analytics, GPS-tagged defect maps, and SDI scoring — all in one platform.

Why TransDAC

Built for Real Budgets

Every feature is designed to maximize value and minimize overhead — so any agency can act on road data without breaking the budget.

🔩
Affordable Sensors
Portable, low-cost sensors detect potholes, count traffic, and measure surface and air temperature — without expensive hardware investments.
🧠
Machine Learning
Algorithms trained on real road data provide enhanced performance and accuracy — with built-in feedback loops that continuously improve over time.
🗺️
Visual Analytics
Geospatial maps, SDI heatmaps, and trend dashboards turn raw sensor data into actionable maintenance insights — no data science team required.
🚐
Use Any Vehicle
Swappable sensors mean your existing utility fleet — trucks, vans, maintenance vehicles — become data collection units during normal operations.
⚡
Zero Manual Review
No need to manually verify images or drive routes to locate defects. AI automatically classifies and pinpoints every anomaly on a GPS-tagged map.
☁️
Cloud & Scalable
Web-based access to archived and real-time data from any location. Scale coverage and analytics depth based on budget and policy requirements.

The Process

How TransDAC Works

📱 1
Mount & Drive
Attach portable sensors to any existing utility vehicle. Field users record video and GPS data during normal route operations — no extra trips required.
☁️ 2
Upload to Cloud
Video segments and GPS data upload automatically to secure Azure cloud storage, accessible to your entire team instantly from any device.
🤖 3
AI Analysis
Machine learning classifies every frame — identifying cracks, potholes, and surface defects with GPS-precise coordinates. Background frames are filtered automatically.
📊 4
Visualize & Act
View defect maps, SDI heatmaps, and condition scores on your dashboard. Prioritize repairs, export reports, and track improvement over time.
