Favorsense is a crowdsensing platform that allows the public and private sectors to build smarter cities and communities through citizen engagement. It uses a crowdsensing management platform as a problem resolution backend system to efficiently handle issue reports from citizens via their smartphones. Authorities can then assign the issues to field forces to resolve the problems while insights from the aggregated crowdsensing data can help inform decision making. The platform benefits various local organizations and authorities in managing infrastructure and public services as well as communities through collaborative problem solving.
