# Arterial (Arterial Data Solutions Inc.)

> Arterial is an AI-powered roadway intelligence platform for U.S. public works and transportation agencies. It builds a continuously updating infrastructure record from the roads your fleet already drives — pavement condition, signs, markings, and roadside assets.

## What Arterial Does (Quick Answer)
- Customers: cities, counties, state DOTs, utilities, and fleet-heavy operators.
- Data capture: passive — uses cameras already in customer vehicles (or the low-cost ARTIE windshield camera, ~15 minute install).
- AI: detects and inventories signs, pavement defects, hydrants, manholes, delineators, drainage features, and markings near the road.
- Output: a living, geospatial system of record with dynamic prioritization, dashboards, and feature-service APIs that snap into existing workflows.
- Refresh cadence: roughly 90% jurisdictional coverage every two weeks at one camera per ~70 lane miles.
- Privacy: AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.2+ in transit, no PII collected, imagery scrubbed of people and vehicles, customer owns its data.
