In India, road transportation has dominated over all the other means of transportation. Due to the increasing demand for road transportation and service the roads are flooded with traffic. One of the major problems the roads are facing is worsened road conditions. Here we propose a system of ‘Pothole detection System' which assists the driver in avoiding potholes on the roads. Our motivation is to create an Android Application that detects potholes automatically using mobile sensors such as gyroscope and accelerometer. Quality of the road is analyzed using Accelerometer and Gyroscope, the SVM algorithm is used for training the pothole data then the location of the detected pothole is stored on the cloud. Our system displays the perfection of 97.04%. Unexpected barriers on the road may cause more accidents so we provide feedback to the car driver and also to authorities which will help manage the road.
