BackRoadIntel, by IntelliMass Technologies (Kelowna, BC), turns drives already happening into a dated, geolocated record of remote roads and assets — road-health sensing plus continuous video — so communities and asset owners can see the condition of routes they can't get to often enough. It began with a wildfire evacuation, and is used to help plan back-road evacuation routes and monitor remote corridors.
