A Mobile Application for the Crowdsensing of Road Pavements Conditions
Urban environments face significant challenges due to deteriorating road pavements, affecting all transportation modes' safety and comfort. Traditional methods of road assessment are costly and infrequent, but advancements in mobile technology and crowdsensing offer real-time, large-scale data collection solutions. This paper introduces “ShakeSensing”, a mobile application that uses Android device sensors to measure vibrations experienced by cyclists and scooter users, providing insights into road quality. The collected data, analyzed to assess road conditions, can benefit both users and municipal authorities, promoting safer and more comfortable travel.
