The MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub (CSHub) has scheduled a webinar titled The Carbin App: Assessing Road Quality Using Crowdsourced Smartphone Measurements for Thursday, July 30, at 11 a.m. Eastern time. Since 2019, CSHub’s Carbin app has crowdsourced over 250,000 miles of road quality and emissions data from around the world. In this webinar, Meshkat Botshekan, a CSHub research assistant, validates this crowdsourced approach by comparing data collected by Carbin users with data from the Federal Highway Adminis¬tration.
The CSHub webinar series offers information of general interest to members of the building, paving and construction communities as well as to educators, students, journalists, and law and policymakers interested in the environmental and economic impacts of decision-making concerning infrastructure. Videos of past webinars are archived to the CSHub YouTube channel. Webinars are free and open to the public. Presentations are geared toward a lay audience.
