Abstract
Motivated by the Internet of Things as a project for Computer Networking, this paper proposes a web application aided by Android devices that gathers the information of detected potholes through their built-in accelerometers and global positioning system. It then stores such information in the database of a web application developed entirely using Scala Play. The data is depurated statistically by looking at related in databases of the district of Bogotá and locating potholes in a public access map. This paper shows that, in general, building a prototype for this application is pretty fast and reliable, despite the fact that almost all of the information available is not properly written in open documents such as HTML, or even DOC. Only PDF files of scanned images were found, thereby hindering the final phase of this project.
