Wapice has been involved in the development of a neural network-based road damage detection solution for Destia, which will help the company improve road condition monitoring and effectively anticipate the necessary maintenance resources. With the help of diverse data, road damage can be detected faster and more accurately, which means that any damage can be acted upon before it causes harm to road users.
The solution designed by Wapice uses the latest available methods to achieve a more accurate, quicker and error-free image processing result than in the case of traditional methods. In addition, the developed neural network-based model can be used in diverse environments without a need to adjust parameters.
– The solution for detection of road damage is based on convolutional neural networks that have an established place in modern image processing. They are particularly used for such challenging detection and classification tasks, says Mickey Shroff from Wapice.
