Traffic signs
MUTCD-coded, including US-generic and regional variants, with lane impact and road context on each detection.
CityStream is a live read of the road network itself. Every vehicle that passes a location adds an observation, so the state of a sign, a surface, a lane or a work zone updates continuously instead of on a survey cycle. It is not a map you buy once. It is a feed you stay connected to.
CityStream catalogs road intelligence across four categories, unified in one feed.
MUTCD-coded, including US-generic and regional variants, with lane impact and road context on each detection.
Where they are, when they appeared, and how that compares with what was filed.
Potholes, manholes, road plates and similar defects.
Condition, and how it is deteriorating between observations.
CityStream uses Empiric Earth’s nationwide sensor network to continuously detect, classify, and monitor changing road statuses.

ΔWho need road state that is current rather than annual.
Learn moreBecause the same locations get observed again and again, CityStream reports the difference between this week and last rather than a single snapshot. A sign that came down, a work zone that appeared without a permit, a surface degrading over three months: each shows up as a change you can act on and, later, as evidence that an intervention worked.
Coverage follows where vehicles actually drive. A dense urban corridor refreshes constantly; a rural road refreshes when someone drives it. CityStream will tell you which one you are looking at rather than presenting both as equally fresh.
Fresh detections across all four categories for any bounding box.
Curated inventory for a bounding box or a list of H3 cells.
A dedicated feed for construction activity.
