EaseMyTrip Co-Founder Prashant Pitti pledges Rs 1 crore to address Bengaluru's traffic issues using technology-driven solutions like Google Maps and satellite data.
Pitti aims to identify traffic chokepoints in Bengaluru by leveraging tools such as 'Road Management Insight' data on Google Maps and satellite imagery to help the traffic department take targeted actions.
He plans to allocate the funds to hire machine learning/artificial intelligence engineers, cover costs for APIs, GPUs, and other tools required for the project.
Pitti calls for support from followers to connect with individuals who can contribute to the project and emphasizes the importance of improving Bengaluru's traffic situation for its tech community.
