Smart Cities A Smart City utilizes innovative and emerging technologies and concepts to collect, analyze, and utilize data from many sources to enhance the city s livability. Smart City concepts are easily extrapolated to Smart Region concepts. Mobility Mobility as a Service Automated/ Connected Vehicles Transportation Infrastructure Parking Monitoring ITS & Incident Management Others Health & Human Services Public Safety Public Transit Arterial Operations Energy, Waste, Water 3
Smart Cities Improve Mobility/Reduce Congestion Increase Safety Vision Zero Improve Efficiency Save Money/Time Reduce Emissions Spur Economic Development/Access to Jobs Raise Quality of Life Usually a transportation perspective, but not always - Smart homes, offices, warehouses, business processes 4
Traditional ITS Highway Cameras Radar Detectors Intersection Detectors Adaptive Traffic Signals Variable Message Signs Fiber Optics Automatic Vehicle Locators (AVL) Modern Control Centers EzPass Toll Systems 5
Innovative and Emerging Technologies Crowdsource Vehicle Monitoring (WAZE/Google) Connected Vehicles (CV) and People Automated Vehicles/Electric Vehicles (AV/EV) Real-time Big Data Processing Real-time Traffic Signals In Vehicle/Personal Messaging Mobility as a Service (MaaS) Real-time Mobile Apps Internet of Things (IoT) Open Road Toll Systems 6
