Clark County, Nevada, one of the fastest growing counties in the United States, awarded a contract to Stantec to provide a County-wide inventory of select transportation and public works infrastructure. Using the latest developments in speech recognition combined with one-meter GPS, inspectors are pedaling their way across the County speaking in their observations. Hands on the handlebars and eyes on the road, a constant stream of data flows into the GIS. Collecting data at the speed of sound!
