Data shared with transport authorities
In production the hub exchanges data through secure interfaces: crash and traffic data arrive from GIS and transport authority systems to keep the hotspot dashboard current, verified hazard reports are referred to the responsible roads authority, and partners can check certificates through the verification service.
Verify a road-safety certificate
Employers and partners can confirm that a certificate is genuine and current with its verification code.
