Smart Pothole Detection and Reporting System: Real-Time Localization and Automated Alerts for Efficient Road Maintenance

Potholes are a significant hazard and cause terrible damages to cars, endangering drivers and pedestrians almost involved. The existing system of pothole detection and reporting has been slow and inefficient and, given the human factors involved, also error-prone, leading to generally behind schedule responses if at all, with an added potential for injuries. With the advance of laptop imaginative and prescient, machine studying, and geolocation, this paper proposes a real-time pothole detection and reporting device which has the capability to automatically identify large potholes on the road. The gadget not only ”cheap” gets a high accuracy detection of big potholes, but also marks their exact location via GPS and displays it on a virtual map. These potholes are automatically flagged to appropriate authorities including Public Works Department (PWD), Road Transport Office (RTO), road safety engineers, and local authorities bodies. It allows for instant motion and maintenance. The solution provided by this essay is to enhance road safety, streamline renovation strategies and minimize the impact of potholes on street customers. The suggested device used the statistics of real time collection and reporting to develop an exceptionally green, scalable and responsive to street renovation.
