PIERRE, (KCCR) — It looks a bit like the Google Maps car and it is taking pictures of the streets in Pierre, but not to post them on the Internet. City Engineer Nick Waters says the Street Scan car driving through Pierre is like a doctor for the road…
Cameras are just a part of what the Street Scan car has on-board…
The system produces a digital map that is color-coded with green roads in good condition and red in need of work, but it’s not an automatic ticket to a new surface…
The scanning of nearly 80 miles of roads within the Pierre city limits will wrap up by the end of the week.
