Crowd4Roads: Crowd sensing and ride sharing for road sustainability
The Crowd4Roads project aims at engaging drivers and passengers in the development and adoption of more sustainable car usage habits and road maintenance policies. This is done by establishing a synergistic relationship between BlaBlaCar, the largest ride sharing community worldwide with more than 10 million users, and SmartRoadSense, a crowd sensing system which exploits the accelerometers of car-mounted smartphones as non-intrusive sensors of road surface quality.
Project lifetime: 01/01/2016 to 31/12/2018
