Cities that aim to work in a more data driven way need reliable information about how their infrastructure performs. Road conditions shift with weather, traffic and seasonal changes, but traditional methods are slow, resource heavy and unable to deliver continuous insight.
By gathering real time road condition data from nearly two million vehicles, NIRA transforms ordinary traffic into a powerful source of continuous intelligence.
• Continuous updates on surface conditions.
• Early signs of deterioration.
• Precise identification of local road damage.
• Real time friction during normal driving.
• Insights without deploying measurement vehicles.
It enables faster, more objective and more accurate decisions across operations.
Imagine knowing how every street behaves throughout the day: where the surface softens after rain, where roughness begins to rise and where friction drops before anyone reports it.
NIRA transforms raw vehicle data into a live status network of road behavior, allowing operators to follow changes as they happen and understand which areas need attention first.
With this constant stream of insight, cities gain a foundation for smarter planning, safer streets and maintenance that reflects real conditions rather than assumptions.
With our Road Health solution, cities can turn this live status network into clear, actionable guidance. It shows which roads need attention, when interventions will have the greatest effect and where sudden damage requires a quick response.
• Continuous scanning of the entire network
• Daily updates on roughness, friction and irregularities
• Early alerts when potholes or new defects appear
• Reduced maintenance costs through better timing
Because the data comes from everyday passenger vehicles, cities get an authentic picture of how the road behaves for the people driving on it. This creates a stronger basis for prioritizing investments, planning long term improvements and avoiding unnecessary work.
With our Winter Road Insights, operators get access to real time friction data that follows winter conditions continuously. Traditional weather stations cannot keep up, but connected vehicles can.
• Instant feedback after plowing or salting.
• Slipperiness alerts before incidents occur.
• A live status of winter road conditions.
• Effective methods for follow up.
• Performance evaluation.
For the first time, winter maintenance becomes measurable. Operators can track outcomes, adjust strategies and plan actions with clarity rather than guesswork.
Together, Road Health and Winter Road Insights provide a continuous understanding of how roads behave in real life. The result is a more precise way to prioritize resources, improve safety and strengthen long term infrastructure planning.
When decisions are powered by real data, every action has greater impact, and every improvement becomes part of a more connected, responsive and forward looking city system.
