This article by Caylee Talpert of AnyWay solutions was published in NextBillion Magazine and explores the emergence of “InfraTech” including the use of AI, remote sensing, mobile apps and other digital tools to support climate-resilient transportation infrastructure in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
In this article, Caylee explains how despite substantial investment, many communities still lack reliable all-weather roads, which hinders access to markets, jobs and services. The piece details how advanced technologies (e.g., satellite imagery, machine-learning design, smartphone-based road-condition monitoring) are helping to collect critical data, optimise design and maintenance, and tailor solutions to local conditions. Ultimately it shows how these digital innovations are enabling more durable, socially inclusive and cost-efficient transportation networks in challenging environments.
