Autori will take part in the LCRIG Innovation & Learning Festival 2026, bringing together councils, contractors, consultants and industry partners from across the UK highways ecosystem. The event is known for its focus on collaboration, learning and open discussion — and that is exactly the approach we are taking.
From visual data to real operational workflows
Across the UK, road maintenance often relies on fragmented systems and disconnected datasets.
At Autori, we focus on a simple but powerful idea:
turn visual data into shared, actionable workflows
With Autori:
- Vista captures the reality of the network (dashcam, 360°, aerial imagery)
- Field Tools turns observations into actions, work orders and reporting
All stakeholders work from the same shared, verified view of the network
What we want to explore at LCRIG
The LCRIG Innovation & Learning Festival 2026 is known for its focus on collaboration, learning and open discussion. Rather than presenting a fixed solution, we are looking to engage in meaningful conversations with councils, contractors, consultants and industry partners about:
-
How visual road data can support decision-making across the full maintenance lifecycle
-
How councils, contractors and consultants can work from a shared, evidence-based view of the network
-
How visual data (dashcam, 360°, etc.) can move from "inspection data" into day-to-day operational use
-
How to improve planning, prioritisation and verification using real-world data
-
How to reduce friction and move towards transparent, evidence-based workflows
Our discussions will centre on several key areas: how visual road data can support decision-making across the full maintenance lifecycle, how councils, contractors and consultants can work from a shared, evidence-based view of the network, and how visual data sources such as dashcam and 360° imagery can be integrated into everyday operations. We are also interested in exploring how to improve planning, prioritisation and verification using real-world data, and how to reduce friction while moving towards transparent, evidence-based workflows.
These conversations reflect our commitment to understanding the unique challenges facing the UK highways ecosystem. With over 30 years of experience in road maintenance and a trusted base of more than 50 infrastructure owner customers, we approach these discussions with genuine interest in learning from industry professionals and exchanging perspectives on how technology can support operational efficiency.
Real UK road data – from Coventry to London
To make discussions concrete and grounded in real-world context, we will showcase real road data captured in May 2026 across Coventry, Stoneleigh Park, Birmingham and London. This dataset has been collected using both
-
Autori Field Tools, providing a comprehensive view of how visual data can be captured, managed and utilized in infrastructure operations.
During the festival, we will walk through this dataset together, demonstrating how this type of data could support your organisation's own workflows and decision-making processes. The imagery includes 360° and 2D formats, offering detailed visual documentation that enables remote diagnosis, reduces the need for on-site inspections, and creates visual twins of streets, roads and highways for planning and documentation purposes.
We are happy to walk through the dataset together and explore:
how this type of data could support your organisation’s own workflows and decision-making. Our goal is not to present — but to listen, learn and exchange perspectives.

We look forward to engaging with the UK highways ecosystem at the LCRIG Innovation & Learning Festival 2026. With our commitment to ongoing user support, close collaboration with customers and innovative AI-driven solutions, we aim to contribute meaningful insights to the conversations around modern infrastructure management and evidence-based maintenance practices.
