Automated Code Violation Detection Using Artificial Intelligence [by City Detect]-Empowering local governments and nonprofits with actionable insights on city-wide housing conditions, all in near-real-time.
Join us for an exciting online event, the City Detect Demonstration! Discover the power of this innovative tool that revolutionizes city planning, code enforcement and management. This event is your chance to see firsthand how cutting-edge technology can transform the way cities operate. We will also discuss various funding mechanisms and grants that can be used to support code enforcement departments throughout the United States.
City Detect uses advanced AI and computer vision technology to accurately assess housing conditions, enabling efficient code enforcement, strategic resource allocation, and impact measurement for local governments. As artificial intelligence (“AI”) increasingly becomes a part of our everyday lives, this session will explore how local code enforcement officers can use AI tools to improve workflows and gain additional insights into the built environment.
Founded in Tuscaloosa, AL, City Detect is an AI company that uses mounted cameras and computer vision to automatically detect, map, and report housing decay and code violations. Its machine learning system analyzes housing stock and the built environment exponentially faster than traditional reporting methods.
Three points to take away:
- As AI continues to expand, computer vision can be a game changer for code enforcement departments of all sizes.
- Importance of aggregated data and understanding the root causes of particular behavior as well as its impact on communities.
- Various grant opportunities exist to support code enforcement departments and housing redevelopment including Community Development Block Grants, Choice Neighborhood Planning/ Implementation Grants, and American Rescue Plan Act among others.
