A city is a multifaceted entity.
There are different neighborhoods, diverse populations, and every kind of professional.
These residents all share something in common. All of them want quick, efficient, seamless city services without hassle or delay.
Coordinating your city’s assets is one of your biggest jobs as a Smart City Manager. Residents depend on the city’s efficiency for access to municipal resources like water, electricity, and gas. They turn to you in times of need, like when a broken water pipe floods their neighborhood.
Today, even if a city possesses IOT-enabled devices, it’s likely they aren’t being utilized to their full capacity. Data is only useful if it can be organized and filtered to create actionable information about a city’s assets. Along the way, this kind of data organization also helps a city save money and offer more services to city residents.
Providing all those services is a significant task, especially if you have to manage separate systems, on separate networks, with no way to understand their relationship or interdependency.
It’s Thinkz’ goal to integrate all these systems – with the aim of making life better for all of a city’s residents.
- Prompt notification about electricity, water, communication outages
- The ability to preserve human life during natural disasters
- Ensuring public infrastructure (bridges, roads, tunnels, traffic lights) are in good working order and alerting residents if they are notification
- Monitoring weather changes to protect the lives of citizens
- Assuring public safety and creating an environment of wellbeing
Smart city uses digital technology to connect, protect, and enhance the lives of citizens. IoT sensors, video cameras, social media, and other inputs act as a nervous system, providing the city operator and citizens with constant feedback so they can make informed decisions.
