Smart City: monitor your city assets and optimise public services
Consolidate various solutions into a single, centralized platform
The greatest source of new insights comes from intelligently combining existing sensors and devices. By integrating devices from different systems into one centralized platform, their data can be processed and merged. For instance, combining microphone data with a people counter allows you to distinguish between a busy yet calm morning and a bustling, noisy crowd. Similarly, monitoring soil moisture alongside weather forecasts enables more efficient maintenance and irrigation of your greenery. For mobility, tracking parking occupancy and live monitoring of shared mobility solutions helps optimize strategies for creating a more sustainable city.
The Bluebeacon rules engine enables users to predict various scenarios, such as traffic flows and bottlenecks. By forecasting these events, professionals can proactively respond and even automate actions to manage upcoming congestion. For example, predicted flight delays at an airport can be used to anticipate longer queue times at passport control an hour later. The system then automatically notifies team leads to deploy additional staff as needed. This can also be enhanced with profiles, allowing users to define specific conditions for triggers. In the airport scenario, factors such as flight origin, dominant language, or airline can help determine the necessary staff skills.
Predict traffic flows and create customized profiles for better planning and management
Automated notifications to keep you informed about maintenance requirements or surveillance activities
As a maintenance or surveillance team, you can easily set up alarms to trigger when specific threshold values are exceeded. For example, you can be alerted when a square becomes overcrowded during a national celebration or when an intersection experiences unusually high traffic compared to similar locations. Alternatively, you can generate a list of trees that need watering and feed this data into your maintenance application via webhooks. With the mobile app, you can also send push notifications to users, prompting them to take necessary actions.
With all assets connected, you can create custom dashboard apps featuring data visualizations. For example, compare traffic in busy streets, areas, or hallways. You can also design personalized map views, charts, or maps for different users and share them as standalone applications with your departments or teams. Additionally, public dashboards and web components can be embedded into your city’s website, allowing broader access to key insights.
