Decision-making module
This module is designed to provide information to users making decisions in difficult conditions for a complete and objective analysis of the road situation.

The modules provides:
- Event processing
- Information related to an event registered in the System in the event card.
- Photos and videos from a camera on the section of the road where the event occurred.
- The option for reproducing (play) an event in the graphical configurator (except for events identified by indirect evidence).
