关于客户
The City of Cincinnati is a municipal government in the United States. It has various departments including Finance, Waterworks, Sewage District, and other agencies. The city's Information Technology department, known as the Regional Computer Center, is responsible for supporting the city’s financial and human resource systems, managing Internet and intranet deployments, and maintaining information security and roles for the city’s local and wide area networks. The city was looking to modernize its information-delivery capabilities and construct a pervasive reporting architecture that would cover all city departments.
挑战
The City of Cincinnati was faced with the challenge of creating a self-service reporting system that would empower nearly 1,000 users in various departments such as Finance, Waterworks, Sewage District, and other agencies to create, share, and distribute information. The city needed to enable ad hoc and standardized reporting options from the city’s intranet, devise a simple way to export certified financial data to Excel, create a parameterized reporting environment for non-technical users, and automate the selection and distribution of information by e-mail. The city was also looking to modernize its information-delivery capabilities and construct a pervasive reporting architecture.
解决方案
The City of Cincinnati turned to Information Builders for their WebFOCUS and Professional Services to construct a pervasive reporting architecture. WebFOCUS was used to manage information for several divisions of the Finance department, including Treasury, Payroll, Budget, and Retirement. Other agencies, such as the Waterworks department, Sewer District, Police, Building Inspections, Highway Maintenance, Parking, Engineering, and the City Council, also made a wholesale switch to WebFOCUS. The solution allowed users to access 18 categories of reports directly from the city’s intranet without a lengthy log-in process or any special software. The reports were published in HTML or PDF format and could be output to Microsoft Excel if desired. The city also used WebFOCUS ReportCaster to automate several key workflow processes.

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.
