Automated
Sidewalk Assessments
We employ millimeter-accurate tooling to capture actionable sidewalk & curb ramp data, delivered as a turnkey service to support your safety and compliance goals from a risk-management perspective.
What We Do
We simplify compliance and safety goals with accurate, comprehensive data, providing automated sidewalk and trail assessments ranging from full PROWAG evaluations to trip & fall hazard scans, covering sidewalks, curb ramps, crosswalks, and more. Partnering with trusted engineering and consulting firms, we help cities & universities build safer, more accessible communities.
Assessment Solutions
Adaptable Assessments for Your Needs
Not every project needs a full compliance assessment. We provide adaptable assessments that match what you're trying to solve.
Base Sidewalk Assessment
Sidewalk-only condition assessment
Best for: Reducing sidewalk trip & fall hazards.
Base Public Right-of-Way Assessment
Includes a PROWAG-based assessment of all sidewalks, crosswalks, and curb ramps.
Best for: ADA Self-Evaluations & Transition Plans; Reducing Trip & Fall Hazards.
Premium Public Right-of-Way Assessment
Adds signalized intersections, transit stops, stairways, loading zones, and on-street parking.
Best for: ADA Self-Evaluations & Transition Plans.
Premium+ Public Right-of-Way Assessment
Adds to-scale measurable models of your sidewalk pathway network.
Best for: ADA Self-Evaluations & Transition Plans; Capital Improvement Planning.

Data Collection
Easily visualize sidewalk issues through intuitive, color-coded GIS maps. Quickly explore detailed segment reports with issue locations, photos, and actionable repair insights. All directly accessible in Esri ArcGIS or other asset management systems.
Cover miles of sidewalks and ramps in weeks instead of months with high-speed robots
Proven data accuracy, verified through aggressive data audits
GIS-ready data seamlessly integrated into GIS systems for immediate insights
Advanced Technology for Precise Results
Every Dax unit carries a purpose-built sensor stack. Together, these instruments capture measurements at a level of precision manual city-wide assessments can't match. Instruments take measurements directly, to avoid occlusion and other common errors that mobile LiDAR can experience when measuring sidewalk segments.
A suite of precision lasers identifies sidewalk cracks, uplifts, and surface defects.
Highly Accurate GPS Technology ensures reliable location data for every measured segment.
Specialized Inclinometer measures slopes with 0.03% precision for accurate assessments.
Measurable 3D Sidewalk Environments
Dax doesn't just record measurements, it builds a metrically scaled, globally oriented 3D model of every segment it covers. Because the model is true to the real world, you can take real measurements off it: verify a slope, check a ramp width, or answer a resident's question without sending a crew back into the field.
Accurate to reality. Stereo imagery, laser-measured slopes, and RTK positioning are solved together into a sub-centimeter geolocated mesh, oriented to within 1.5°.
Measurable, not just viewable. Compliance values are derived directly from slab geometry for to-scale measurability.
Easy Access. Models are linked to existing segments in your GIS or asset management system.
Informed Repair Prioritization
Daxbot delivers consistent, defensible measurements across your entire pedestrian
network, scored against PROWAG and organized into phased repair priorities.
Defensible by design: Scored against PROWAG standards with consistent documented methodology.
Phased and ready to budget: Assets are grouped into repair phases, so the worst hazards are addressed first.
Built to hand off: GIS-ready outputs that drop into the workflows engineering and consulting firms already use.
We Assess
From sidewalks and curb ramps to crossings, transit stops, trails, and on-street parking.
Sidewalks
We identify uplifts, slopes, vertical obstructions, access barriers, and other features that affect safety and ADA compliance to PROWAG standards.
Curb Ramps
We measure ramp slope, width, landing space, and detectable warnings to support accessibility compliance.
Trails & Exterior Paths
We assess surface conditions, slopes, and other accessibility features on trails and exterior pathways.
Crosswalks
We evaluate crosswalk slope, intersection and traffic control type, and whether markings are present.
Transit Stops
We assess boarding and alighting areas for correct depth and slope.
On-Street Parking
We record on-street parking, accessible parking spaces, and passenger loading zones along the route.
Comprehensive Assessment Services
We provide sidewalk and pathway assessments that fit your needs. Tell us about your project, and we’ll help you get started.
