关于客户
Vizonomy is a computer software company that evaluates risk using open data and technologies. They combine various asset and hazard layers to gain insight and build tools that assist in risk management and insurance related decisions. Vizonomy harnesses data to help partners respond to disasters, plan future development, track conflict, and prepare for climate change. Their clients include organizations of all sizes: from multi-lateral development agencies, such as the Inter-American Development Bank and USAID, to startups and nonprofits like, Weather Analytics and the World Wildlife Fund.
挑战
Vizonomy, a computer software company, was faced with the challenge of making natural risk assessments and hazard mitigation plans accessible to a wider range of stakeholders. Traditionally, these assessments were only available to a select number of government stakeholders who could afford the costs associated with the process. As a result, few communities were able to develop a plan and thereby become eligible for federal resources should a natural disaster occur. Additionally, the traditional risk assessment process was built on a static model, where datasets quickly become out-of-date and new assessments cannot be developed easily without external assistance.
解决方案
Vizonomy used CARTO, open data, and open source software to create a Climate Risk Platform that lowered the cost of a typical climate risk assessment by 80%. The platform uses the most up-to-date datasets found throughout government: from FEMA floodplains and NOAA sea level rise scenarios to more than 70 other layers representing buildings, schools, populations, and more — all synchronized to their source in real-time. The local resiliency officer, floodplain manager, or urban planner can then run their own customized analysis and share his results via social media or print.

Case Study
Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.

Case Study
Smart Street Light Network (Copenhagen)
Key stakeholders are taking a comprehensive approach to rethinking smart city innovation. City leaders have collaborated through partnerships involving government, research institutions and solution providers. The Copenhagen Solutions Lab is one of the leading organizations at the forefront of this movement. By bringing together manufacturers with municipal buyers, the Copenhagen Solutions Lab has catalyzed the development and deployment of next-generation smart city innovations. Copenhagen is leveraging this unique approach to accelerate the implementation of smart city solutions. One of the primary focus areas is LED street lighting.
Case Study
Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.
Case Study
China Mobile Smart Parking
Smart Parking, powered by NB-IoT technology, is making it easier for drivers to find free parking spots. Cities can better manage their parking assets and maximize the revenue available to them as a result. Drivers searching for parking create congestion and pollution by circling and hunting for available parking. Smart Parking services are able to significantly ease these problems by guiding a driver directly to a parking space.
Case Study
Barcelona Case Study
Barcelona’s heavy traffic and its associated high levels of pollution were the primary factors that motivated some companies and universities to work on strategies for improving traffic in the city centre. Bitcarrier is one of the technologies involved in the In4Mo Project, whose main objective is to develop the applications that form the core of smart mobility, one of the fundamental pillars of the smart city concept.
