Learning Outcomes
Discover how INSPECH built the product together with their strategic civil engineering partner, Unihorn and how they use AI to assist digital inspections, where it has so far been used, with real-life examples and illustrations of client benefits derived.
In the UK today, there are many vendor offerings in the field of road condition data collection and assessments. The introduction of PAS2161 opens-up technology choices for local authorities. There is also a drive towards AI across the board and we want to show that with INSPECH, AI adoption in this space is accessible to all, transparent, inexpensive and a pragmatic approach that every council can take to achieve more in times of severe financial constraint.
