Pune-Based Firm Uses AI For Road Surveys In Latur


The Maharashtra Public Works Department (PWD) has embraced Artificial Intelligence for conducting road surveys in Latur, a project believed to be the first of its kind in the state.

The AI-driven initiative is currently underway in Udgir, with funding of Rs 1.99 crore provided by the District Planning and Development Council (DPDC), as confirmed by PWD executive engineer Rohan Jadhav on Sunday.

This project involves a digital survey of roads, collecting detailed data on road quality, traffic density, and sequential numbering. Such information will assist the PWD in enhancing construction and maintenance activities, said Jadhav.

The work is being carried out by Rasta.Ai, a Pune-based company specialising in road maintenance and asset management, the official added.
