The Problem
Thai election vote counting relies on handwritten tally sheets that are difficult to verify at scale. Manual data entry is slow and error-prone, creating opportunities for discrepancies to go undetected.
The Solution
Built an OCR pipeline during a civic tech hackathon that processes photos of handwritten election tally sheets, extracts vote counts using computer vision and OCR, and outputs structured data for verification. Designed for scalability across thousands of polling stations.
