The Japan Times - Transoft Solutions Receives AiRAP Accreditation

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA / ACCESS Newswire / October 2, 2025 / Transoft Solutions, a global leader in transportation engineering, analysis, and operations software, is now officially an accredited AiRAP data provider, reinforcing its support for the International Road Assessment Programme's (iRAP) vision of a world free of high-risk roads. This achievement enables more efficient iRAP Star Rating assessments performed by road safety professionals and practitioners.

iRAP's Star Rating methodology uses a predictive, risk-based approach to assess roads universally by reviewing attributes present along the road corridor. The time-consuming traditional method of conducting an iRAP Star Rating involves accredited coders manually reviewing video footage of road, 100m at a time, and coding more than 50 road attributes. These attributes are then processed through iRAP's ViDA software to get an objective star rating measure of the level of safety for vehicle occupants, motorcyclists, cyclists, and pedestrians. To scale this process, iRAP launched AiRAP in 2019, which stands for the "accelerated and intelligent" capture of road safety data. Learn more about AiRAP at: www.irap.org/airap.

Transoft AssetMAPPER® Roads, an AiRAP accredited inspection system, has expanded its capabilities to simplify the road coding and data preparation steps in road assessments, lowering costs per unit of road assessed and streamlining inventory and condition data collection, performance monitoring and risk analysis, and lifecycle planning.

Under the traditional road coding approach, AssetMAPPER allows users to manually code road attributes from 360° video footage through its user-friendly web browser interface. Under the AiRAP framework, AssetMAPPER enables open-source data and advanced computer vision in 360° video footage to accelerate the automated coding of 20 road attributes.

As an accredited AiRAP data provider with an accredited inspection system, AssetMAPPER can help you:

• Accelerate the road coding and data preparation processes for iRAP Star Ratings

• Leverage multiple data sources, including open-source data and advanced computer vision in 360° video footage

• Enhance road assessments and planning with repeatable, scalable tools
