NIRA Dynamics and LSM Analytics at PWX 2025 in Chicago

How Connected Vehicle Data Can Revolutionize Road Maintenance

From August 24–27, 2025, NIRA Dynamics will be at the Public Works Expo (PWX) 2025 in Chicago, one of North America’s leading events for public works and infrastructure professionals. Together with our partner LSM Analytics, we’ll be at booth #2035 to demonstrate how connected vehicle data is transforming the way cities and agencies manage and maintain roads.

What is connected vehicle data and why does it matter for road maintenance?

Every day, millions of vehicles collect valuable data on road surfaces, temperature, vibrations, and driving patterns. When anonymized and processed, this information creates a real-time view of road conditions. It’s not just about identifying potholes or existing damage — it’s about predicting where problems will occur and addressing them before they become expensive and potentially dangerous.

By leveraging connected vehicle data, road operators can:

• Detect and address hazards faster – from sudden surface deterioration to dangerous debris or ice.

• Optimize maintenance schedules – allocating resources based on actual need instead of fixed intervals.

• Extend road lifespan and reduce costs – through smarter, proactive planning.

The partnership between NIRA Dynamics and LSM Analytics

NIRA Dynamics specializes in vehicle-based road analytics, while LSM Analytics brings expertise in geospatial data science and infrastructure management. Together, we offer a combined solution that enables public works agencies to move from reactive to proactive road maintenance.

Meet us at PWX 2025 in Chicago

At booth #2035, you can meet Howell Li and Justin Mahlberg, PhD, E.I.T. from LSM Analytics, LLC, along with Björn Zachrisson from NIRA Dynamics. We’ll showcase real-world examples from North America that highlight how connected vehicle data is already improving traffic safety and reducing long-term maintenance costs.

If you work in road maintenance, transportation planning, or public infrastructure, this is your opportunity to see how connected vehicle data can make roads safer, more sustainable, and more cost-effective.
