The challenge

Local authorities need reliable records of their road networks to decide where to assess conditions and plan maintenance. Field observations need to stay linked to the correct road and location.

The work

Microzone supplied PROMAN and helped local authorities collect and assess infrastructure information, maintain records, and develop road plans. The Roads VCI workflow illustrates how teams can capture conditions, photos, and road traces on a phone, work offline, and review synchronised assessments on a shared map.

Otjiwarongo’s experience

Otjiwarongo Municipality reported using the system and said a road developed through the process was already serving residents.
