Field notes
The proposed workflow uses vehicles’ existing routes, with no screens or buttons for drivers. Strada says reports would include a photo, a 10-second clip, location, severity, and timestamp, then go to the responsible city department through 311. The site gives a price of $30 per vehicle per month and estimates about $54,000 annually for 150 vehicles; its dashboard figures and street examples are marked as illustrative.
