SINGAPORE - Two days. That is how long an inspection to find road defects and other road hazards in industrial estates here can take, with facility managers often waiting even longer for a report, so they can fix the problem.
The new AI-driven inspection system came about as a result of an innovation challenge that JTC organised in 2020 to address the shortcomings of traditional estate inspection methods. Depending on the size of the estate, the process of marking out defects, taking photographs and churning out a report for rectification works could take a few days to a couple of months, JTC said.
More than 10 common estate defects can be automatically detected, including those normally missed out by manual inspections such as slanted lamp posts, damaged traffic signs and broken manholes, JTC said.After the drive-through, estate inspectors can verify the defects highlighted by the AI system and instantaneously generate a report for facility managers to act on.
