Blyncsy unveils AI-powered map of us highways to enhance safety and digital infrastructure
B lyncsy , a Bentley Systems company , has announced it published a comprehensive public map of all interstate highways in the continental United States showing key roadway assets such as guardrails , speed limit signs and work zones to support roadway safety and maintenance conditions . This data is now available to all state US Department of Transportation ( DOT ) agencies , enabling them to better address safety , maintenance and repair operations of deteriorating and at-risk roads more efficiently and cost-effectively , especially during times of natural disasters .
The new Blyncsy interstate highway map uses crowdsourced dash camera imagery from over 1 million vehicles in use today which , when coupled with Blyncsy ’ s powerful AI image analysis toolset , can detect over 40 different road conditions and asset inventory issues in near-real time . These issues include potential roadway safety hazards from guardrail damage , missing signage and lack of proper road striping to roadway vulnerabilities from crashes , natural disasters and work zone areas .
Blyncsy ’ s AI-powered crowdsourced data is delivered through an open API , providing state DOTs a solution that is infinitely scalable and more cost-efficient when compared to other manual data collection technologies like LiDAR , or traditional road inspection methods , which require road maintenance crews to be dispatched .
“ The application of advanced technologies like AI , combined with new sources of data , are transforming the transportation sector , giving us better information as we make investments in safety and mobility ,” said Laura Chace , President and CEO of ITS America . “ We applaud companies
NEWS
like Blyncsy for deploying these forward-thinking technologies and making this Digital Infrastructure data available to the public in an accessible format . We ’ re excited to see how Blyncsy ’ s data launch will support the core values of safety and equity while furthering the digital infrastructure movement on a national scale .”
