Abstract

The widespread adoption of programmable mobile devices that have great sensing, collecting and analysing abilities, opened up multiple new paradigms such as crowdsensing. The addiction of people to their smartphones made it possible to these later to be a part of their daily life and activities, which lead to the creation of applications that require the combination of human participation and the use of the powerful new technologies embedded inside the mobile devices. These information systems help mainly in the gathering of historical and real-time data and in the analysing process. In this work, we present a framework dedicated to authorities that aims to motivate citizens to join a crowd sensing attempt to minimize and control the human and material damage that occurs when having deteriorated roads and non-responsible drivers.
