Vehicle damages due to pothole encounters can be very costly to repair and are potentially dangerous to drivers. Pothole WiFi 360 is a solution to quickly and easily locate potholes so that they can be taken care of efficiently. The system is installed into a certain type of aerial drone that is designed as an automated solution to scan a landscape for potholes. By using radar signals, the system will detect anomalies in the pavement. The program will record the location coordinates of the pothole, based on GPS mapping systems, for workers to determine pothole locations and approximate depth. They will use this information to direct repair crews to the most severe potholes around town.
