SMART CITIES
GREENERGYTEC helps cities and towns build digital infrastructure with the aim of making public services more efficient and user-friendly.
The technologies of the Fourth Industrial Revolution — artificial intelligence, big data, ubiquitous sensors, and cameras — are already radically changing the way people interact with each other and their surroundings.
A phone and the apps on it are an example of personal “smart” environment, enabled by the collection and sharing of all sorts of data. It’s an environment that’s built and managed by private companies — the phone manufacturer, the app developers, the phone service provider, and so on.
At some point, this environment intersects with traditional public services — things like traffic control, public transport, utilities, and public safety. Cities are now able to collect large amounts of data on these things and use that data to operate more efficiently.
Smart cities are at the front-line of resource efficiency. Going digital opens new avenues for the effective and efficient operation of society, by optimizing areas like transport, municipal administration, medical care, education, energy, water, garbage collection and crime prevention.
