Welcome

RoadPhone is a research project funded by Science Foundation Ireland (SFI). It is run by Insight SFI Research Centre for Data Analytics, UCC and the School of Engineering and Architecture, UCC in collaboration with McCurdy Associates Consulting Engineers Ltd.

The RoadPhone project aims to provide a novel low-cost solution for near real-time raod pavement health monitoring using smartphones, thus mitigating the risk of cascading road failure and reducing road repair costs whilst improving transportation safety, economic efficiency and sustainability.
