🎯 The Problem

Cities lose $1.5 billion annually to inefficient infrastructure maintenance:

• ❌ Manual report triage takes 10+ minutes per issue
• ❌ Critical problems get buried under low-priority items
• ❌ No data-driven prioritization → delayed responses
• ❌ Budget overruns due to reactive (not proactive) repairs

💡 Our AI Solution

InfraGuard uses Google Gemini 1.5 Flash to transform infrastructure reporting:

🔍 1. AI Image Analysis (3 seconds)

Citizens upload photos → Gemini extracts:

• ✅ Issue type (Pothole, Broken Streetlight, etc.)
• ✅ Severity (1-5 scale)
• ✅ Cost estimate
• ✅ Safety hazard risk
• ✅ Recommended fix

🎯 2. Priority Scoring (Real-time)

AI algorithm calculates 0-100 priority score using:

• Severity weight (15 pts per level)
• Age factor (5 pts per day)
• Community impact (affected population)
• Status progression

⏰ 3. SLA Tracking (Proactive)

Smart deadline management:

• Critical issues: 2-day SLA
• Medium: 5 days
• Low: 10 days
• Automatic overdue alerts

📊 4. AI Insights Dashboard

Real-time intelligence:

• Report trends (increasing/decreasing)
• Hotspot detection (most frequent issues)
• Community impact totals
• Predictive resolution times
• Budget forecasting
