Your Team Is Managing Paperwork,
Not Cleaning Streets

Backlogged work orders, field verification trips, and stale reports consume resources while the actual problem grows.

Automated Detection,
From Sky to Work Order

Daily drone flights cover entire neighborhoods. AI identifies every dumpsite. Your systems receive automatic updates — no manual intervention needed.

01

Aerial Monitoring

Enterprise drones fly systematic routes covering your target areas daily. High-resolution cameras capture every square foot.

02

AI Detection

Custom-trained deep learning model identifies mattresses, furniture, tires, appliances, construction debris, and bulk waste with 94%+ confidence.

03

Geospatial Mapping

Precise GPS coordinates, photo documentation, severity scoring, and change detection for every site. Know exactly where, how big, and if sites are growing.

04

Automated Reporting

Direct 311 integration creates automatic work orders. Cleanup crews get prioritized dispatch lists with timestamped photo evidence.

05

Work Order Closure

Follow-up flights provide photo proof that sites have been cleaned. Close backlogged tickets with definitive evidence — no field verification needed.

06

Trend Analysis

Identify hotspots, track patterns over time, and optimize crew deployment. Data-driven resource allocation based on actual conditions, not complaint volume.

See What the AI Sees

Computer vision trained on thousands of real dumpsites — detecting what human inspectors miss, at scale.

Step 1 — Detect
AI detection identifying dumpsite with confidence scores and GPS coordinates
94%+ confidence

Computer vision scans aerial photos and identifies illegal dumping. GPS coordinates, size estimates, and material classifications are auto-generated for every detection.

Step 2 — Correlate
AI segmentation and correlation with open work orders
Auto-matched to tickets

Software matches GPS coordinates to open work orders. Instantly identifies which sites are clean, which have active dumping, and which are unreported.

Step 3 — Verify & Close
Aerial photo proof of cleaned site for work order closure
✓ Verified Clean

Timestamped aerial photos provide definitive evidence. Clean sites are auto-closed. Active sites get updated images. Unreported sites become new tickets.

Built Privacy-First
From Day One

Every design decision prioritizes community privacy. No surveillance — just clean streets.

🚫

No Facial Recognition

The system does not include, use, or enable facial recognition of any kind. Cameras fly at altitude making face capture extremely unlikely.

🚗

No License Plate Reading

No ALPR capability. Vehicles are automatically detected and masked with opaque black overlays before any human sees the data.

🏠

Private Property Redacted

AI-powered segmentation masks all private property. Only public rights of way — streets and sidewalks — are retained.

🔒

Private Infrastructure

Data processed on Aerbits' own private server running proprietary AI models — no third-party cloud, no external APIs. We own our AI stack end to end.

🗑️

Short Retention Periods

Unredacted originals deleted within 1 week. Redacted images retained for up to 6 months only.

👁️

Restricted Live Access

Only the Pilot in Command and the authorized Visual Observer can see live or original imagery. No exceptions.

Close 1,000+ Work Orders
Without a Single Field Visit

One flight. One square mile. Every open ticket in that area resolved — with timestamped photo evidence.

All tickets resolved

Aerbits software automatically matches aerial photos to open work orders, providing definitive photo evidence to close every illegitimate report. No field visits, no guesswork.

📸

Photo Proof of Cleared Sites

If the site is clean, you have timestamped photo evidence to close the ticket. No re-dispatching, no guessing.

🗑️

Identify False Reports

Aerial verification quickly identifies locations where no dumping exists. Close false reports with confidence.

No Field Verification Required

Stop sending crews to verify old reports. Aerial coverage provides the evidence you need without dispatching trucks.

📊

Prioritize Active Sites

Once the backlog is cleared, focus resources on confirmed active dumpsites. Deploy crews only where dumping actually exists.

Four Ways to Reduce
Administrative Burden

Stop spending resources on paperwork. Start deploying them on cleanup.

01

Clear Your Backlog

Close stale work orders with photo proof that sites have been cleaned or were false reports. Clear 1,000+ backlogged tickets in days, not months.

02

Close Work Orders Automatically

No more dispatching crews to check if sites are still active. Automated daily flights handle verification — your team gets cleanup lists with photo evidence.

03

Find Unreported Sites

Discover the 30–50% of dumpsites that never get reported. Objective aerial coverage regardless of which neighborhoods file complaints — true environmental justice.

04

Daily Ground Truth

Know the actual status of every location, every day. Current conditions, timestamped photos, GPS coordinates — the complete picture updated daily.

94% Reduction.
26 Days.

✈ San Francisco Bayview Pilot

In the Bayview-Hunters Point neighborhood — one of San Francisco's most impacted areas — daily aerial detection and reporting transformed the landscape in less than a month.

94% reduction in active dumpsites
118 active dumpsites reduced to 7 in just 26 days of consistent detection and reporting.
Key insight: When detection stopped, dumping returned — confirming that consistent monitoring is essential for sustained clean streets.
