Blyncsy Publishes Map of U.S. Interstate Highways Showing Roadway Assets to Enhance Safety, Maintenance, and Accelerate the Digital Infrastructure Movement Nationally
Blyncsy, a Bentley Systems (Nasdaq: BSY) company, has published a comprehensive public map of U.S. interstate highways displaying key roadway assets. The map utilizes AI image analysis of crowdsourced dash camera footage from over 1 million vehicles to detect more than 40 different road conditions and asset inventory issues in near-real time. This includes guardrail damage, missing signage, and road striping problems.
The system provides state DOTs with an efficient, cost-effective solution for monitoring highway safety and maintenance through an open API, offering advantages over traditional methods like LiDAR or manual road inspections. The data helps agencies better address safety, maintenance, and repair operations, particularly during natural disasters.
Blyncsy, una società di Bentley Systems (Nasdaq: BSY), ha pubblicato una mappa pubblica completa delle autostrade interstatali statunitensi che mostra i principali asset stradali. La mappa utilizza l'analisi delle immagini AI di filmati di telecamere da cruscotto provenienti da oltre 1 milione di veicoli per rilevare più di 40 diverse condizioni stradali e problemi di inventario degli asset in tempo quasi reale. Questo include danni ai guardrail, segnaletica mancante e problemi di verniciatura stradale.
Il sistema fornisce ai dipartimenti dei trasporti statali una soluzione efficiente ed economica per monitorare la sicurezza e la manutenzione delle autostrade attraverso un'API aperta, offrendo vantaggi rispetto ai metodi tradizionali come LiDAR o ispezioni manuali delle strade. I dati aiutano le agenzie a gestire meglio le operazioni di sicurezza, manutenzione e riparazione, in particolare durante i disastri naturali.

Blyncsy, une entreprise de Bentley Systems (Nasdaq: BSY), a publié une carte publique complète des autoroutes interétatiques américaines affichant les principaux atouts routiers. La carte utilise l'analyse d'image AI de vidéos de cams de tableau de bord provenant de plus d'un million de véhicules pour détecter plus de 40 différentes conditions routières et problèmes d'inventaire d'actifs en temps quasi réel. Cela inclut les dommages aux glissières de sécurité, les panneaux manquants et les problèmes de marquage routier.
Le système fournit aux départements de transport des États une solution efficace et économique pour surveiller la sécurité et l'entretien des autoroutes à travers une API ouverte, offrant des avantages par rapport aux méthodes traditionnelles telles que le LiDAR ou les inspections manuelles des routes. Les données aident les agences à mieux gérer les opérations de sécurité, d'entretien et de réparation, en particulier lors de catastrophes naturelles.
Blyncsy, ein Unternehmen von Bentley Systems (Nasdaq: BSY), hat eine umfassende öffentliche Karte der US-Interstate-Highways veröffentlicht, die wichtige Straßenressourcen darstellt. Die Karte nutzt KI-Bilderkennung von crowdsourced Dashcam-Aufnahmen von über 1 Million Fahrzeugen, um in nahezu Echtzeit über 40 verschiedene Straßenbedingungen und Inventarprobleme zu erkennen. Dazu gehören Schäden an Schutzplanken, fehlende Verkehrsschilder und Probleme mit der Straßenmarkierung.
Das System bietet den staatlichen Verkehrsbehörden eine effiziente und kostengünstige Lösung zur Überwachung der Sicherheit und Wartung von Autobahnen über eine offene API und bietet Vorteile gegenüber traditionellen Methoden wie LiDAR oder manuellen Straßeninspektionen. Die Daten helfen den Behörden, Sicherheits-, Wartungs- und Reparaturmaßnahmen besser zu adressieren, insbesondere während Naturkatastrophen.

Insights
This technology launch represents a significant advancement in infrastructure monitoring but has immediate financial impact for Bentley Systems. The Blyncsy platform, while innovative in using AI and crowdsourced data for highway monitoring, is primarily a public service tool offered to state DOTs. While it may generate future revenue through API access and related services, the immediate business impact is minimal.
The platform's ability to monitor 40 different road conditions using data from over 1 million vehicles demonstrates impressive scale, but the free public access model suggests this is more of a strategic positioning move rather than a direct revenue driver. The long-term value proposition lies in potential contracts with state agencies and integration with Bentley's broader infrastructure software portfolio.

The new Blyncsy interstate highway map uses crowdsourced dash camera imagery from over 1 million vehicles in use today which, when coupled with Blyncsy’s powerful AI image analysis toolset, can detect over 40 different road conditions and asset inventory issues in near-real time. These issues include potential roadway safety hazards from guardrail damage, missing signage, and lack of proper road striping to roadway vulnerabilities from crashes, natural disasters, and work zone areas.
Blyncsy’s AI-powered crowdsourced data is delivered through an open API, providing state DOTs a solution that is infinitely scalable and more cost-efficient when compared to other manual data collection technologies like LiDAR, or traditional road inspection methods, which require road maintenance crews to be dispatched.
"The application of advanced technologies like AI, combined with new sources of data, are transforming the transportation sector, giving us better information as we make investments in safety and mobility,” said Laura Chace, President and CEO of ITS America. "We applaud companies like Blyncsy for deploying these forward-thinking technologies and making this digital infrastructure data available to the public in an accessible format. We're excited to see how Blyncsy's data launch will support the core values of safety and equity while furthering the digital infrastructure movement on a national scale."
“With increasing workloads and smaller budgets, state DOTs need a way to improve roadway safety and operational efficiencies,” said Mark Pittman, Blyncsy CEO and Bentley’s Director of Transportation AI. “Today, we’re supporting a national digital infrastructure vision and democratizing roadway data by publishing an open dataset of
